Apparatus for Sulfur Content in LPG (AZA 1300 A)

Scope & Application:

The AZA1300A is applicable for the analysis of:

  • Natural gas, processed gases, and final LPG products

  • Volatile sulfur content ranging from 1 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg in gaseous hydrocarbons

  • Volatile sulfur content ranging from 1 mg/kg to 196 mg/kg in liquefied petroleum gases

This makes it indispensable for research institutions, inspection agencies, and refineries requiring rapid and repeatable sulfur testing in compliance with environmental and safety regulations.


Key Features:

  1. Advanced Optical Detection System
    Utilizes the most advanced ultraviolet fluorescence (UVF) technology with high-purity optical components to deliver ultra-high sensitivity and consistent performance.

  2. Imported UV Lamp Assembly
    Equipped with a world-class UV lamp, ensuring excellent signal stability, long operational life, and superior accuracy during trace sulfur detection.

  3. Integrated Nafion Tube Membrane Dryer (U.S. Origin)
    Incorporates an imported Nafion membrane dryer for exceptional moisture removal, maintaining low humidity levels and stable signal response even under varying environmental conditions.

  4. Automatic Calibration & Curve Management
    The system enables creation, storage, and recall of working curves, allowing users to perform repeated analyses without re-establishing calibration — saving time and minimizing operator error.

  5. Multi-Sample Capability
    Through optional gas, liquid, and solid samplers, the AZA1300A supports testing of diverse sample types — from gaseous LPG to viscous hydrocarbons or solid matrices — ensuring universal analytical flexibility.

  6. User-Friendly Software Interface
    Features a Windows-based Chinese/English bilingual interface, intuitive operation menus, and real-time data acquisition and display for easy handling and efficient workflow management.

  7. High-Temperature Combustion & Control
    The furnace temperature can be precisely regulated up to 1100°C, ensuring complete oxidation and accurate measurement of total sulfur content.

  8. High Stability & Low Maintenance
    Designed with high-quality materials, reliable electronic circuitry, and advanced filtration systems for long-term stability, minimal maintenance, and reduced operational downtime.
