Portable, accurate moisture content readings with Michell
Pipelines International — September 2011
Michell Instruments has introduced an intrinsically safe version of its portable hygrometer – the MDM300 I.S – which is designed specifically for applications in natural gas processing.
The hygrometer is capable of measurement at high pressures up to 350 bar, giving readings which are representative of actual process conditions. Certified to ATEX, IECEx, FM, CSA and GOST, the high-speed portable instrument provides fast spot-checks of moisture in processes.
Unlike other dew-point hygrometers, the MDM300 makes fast measurements consecutively in any direction, without a waiting time in between, allowing for many more measurements to be taken each day.
The real portability of the MDM300 I.S allows for spot checks of moisture to be made at any point in the process – which means that points of moisture ingress can be identified quickly and easily before the damage is caused.
