Automatic Mercury Stack Gas Monitor
SM-3
The SM-3 mercury analyzer measures continuously the elemental, bound and ionic mercury in stack fluegas
The operating principle of the SM-3 is based on a completely new technique: mercury compounds cracking and the reduction of ionic mercury contained in stack gas is performed applying the thermocatalytic method.
Wet chemical sample gas treatment using reagents and bubblers is avoided. Maintenance and servicing of the SM-3 are therefore extremely easy.
Exemple of use:
May also be used for mobile applications.
