Natural Gas Quality Analyzers – Reliable Monitoring of Dew Point and H₂S in Gas Networks
Maintaining natural gas quality is critical for safe transport, reliable energy production, and compliance with gas network specifications. Key parameters such as hydrocarbon dew point and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) must be continuously monitored to protect pipelines, measurement equipment, and downstream processes.
AMETEK natural gas analyzers provide accurate online measurement of gas quality parameters, helping operators ensure that gas entering the transmission or distribution network meets required specifications.
With robust analyzer designs and proven measurement technologies, these systems support reliable operation in gas processing plants, transmission pipelines, and custody transfer stations.

Reliable Gas Quality Measurement for Natural Gas Infrastructure
Natural gas systems require continuous monitoring of several critical gas properties.
AMETEK analyzers support gas quality monitoring through measurement of:
- Hydrocarbon dew point temperature
- Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) concentration
- Gas composition and contaminants affecting pipeline safety
These measurements help ensure that gas transported through pipelines remains within specification and free from condensable hydrocarbons or corrosive contaminants.
241CE II Hydrocarbon Dew Point Analyzer – Accurate Measurement for Pipeline Gas Quality
The AMETEK 241CE II Hydrocarbon Dew Point Analyzer provides automated measurement of hydrocarbon dew point temperature in natural gas systems.
Hydrocarbon condensation in gas pipelines can lead to equipment damage, measurement errors, and safety risks. Continuous dew point monitoring allows operators to verify that gas remains within required quality limits.
The analyzer uses an automated chilled mirror measurement principle, where a cooled mirror surface detects the formation of hydrocarbon condensate. The mirror temperature is precisely measured using a platinum resistance temperature detector to determine the dew point.
Key Features
- Direct measurement of hydrocarbon dew point temperature
- Automated chilled mirror technology for reliable measurements
- High accuracy of approximately ±1°C
- Ability to distinguish between water and hydrocarbon condensate
- Integrated filtration system designed for natural gas samples
- Digital communication via Modbus RTU
Typical Applications
- Natural gas pipelines
- Custody transfer stations
- Underground gas storage
- Gas turbine fuel monitoring
- Natural gas processing plants
933 Sulfur Analyzer – H₂S Monitoring for Natural Gas Quality Control
The AMETEK 933 analyzer is designed for continuous monitoring of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) concentration in natural gas.
Hydrogen sulfide must be carefully controlled in natural gas networks because even small concentrations can lead to corrosion, environmental hazards, and regulatory non-compliance.
The analyzer provides reliable detection of H₂S in the ppm range, helping operators ensure that gas meets pipeline and safety specifications.
Key Features
- Continuous online measurement of H₂S concentration
- Typical measurement ranges such as 0–5 ppm or 0–100 ppm
- Designed for natural gas grid monitoring
- Robust industrial design for field installations
- Reliable measurement for gas quality compliance
Typical Applications
- Natural gas transmission pipelines
- Gas distribution networks
- Gas treatment facilities
- Gas custody transfer measurement
- Gas quality verification before grid injection
