Oxygen Measurement in Pipeline Natural Gas

Pages 2 Pages

This application note explains how oxygen contamination in natural gas pipelines creates major safety risks by forming corrosive acids when combined with H₂S, CO₂, and moisture. These reactions can weaken steel pipelines and lead to leaks or failures. Panametrics’ O₂.IQ system provides accurate low-ppm oxygen measurement, immune to background gases, and packaged in a rugged, compact, hazardous-area-rated enclosure. Its sample-handling system protects the analyzer from pressure, particulates, and condensate, ensuring safe, reliable monitoring across the gas value chain.
