Emerson Introduces Hybrid Continuous Gas Analyzer for Improved Regulatory Compliance and Emissions Control

Emerson has announced the release of its Rosemount™ QX1000 Continuous Gas Analyzer, ideally suited for use in continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS), but also a good fit in many other types of applications. The QX1000 uses paramagnetic detection for O₂ and quantum cascade laser direct absorption spectroscopy for all other gases to meet stringent performance requirements. This integration of different technologies and a modular approach provide a flexible, single-system solution tailored to diverse application needs. The QX1000’s robust design with low maintenance requirements also reduces lifecycle cost and downtime.

The QX1000 uses cold/dry technology, with a sample conditioning system transporting gas extracted from the process to the analyzer through a thermoelectric chiller to reduce the temperature to about 4 degrees Celsius (39 Fahrenheit), so most moisture condenses and drops out. Users can easily integrate the QX1000 into existing plant infrastructure, or it can be provided as part of an integrated Emerson system solution, including the sample conditioning system.
