SLFA-6100 / SLFA-6800

​

HORIBA introduces the new standard of transportable sulfur-in-oil analyzers, the SLFA-6000 Series (SLFA-6100 & SLFA-6800). These analyzers have a new software and hardware features to meet the growing changes in the petroleum industry. The instruments have expanded storage of calibration curves and data can be exported using USB output.

This new model can measure a wider range of sulfur content. With an expanded range to measure from 0-9.9999 wt% sulfur due to the higher sulfur concentrations of crude and shale oil markets, these analyzers meet the advancing scientific field. Measurement time ranges from 10 to 600 seconds. Measurement samples include sulfur in petroleum products such as heavy oil, naphtha, crude oil and light oil.

Key Features:

• Simple operation

• Large screen display for easy viewing of real-time data in ppm or percent

• Printouts show information including sample ID, X-ray spectrum, date and time within others

• Original sample cell used for many years

• Secondary window membrane prevents sample leakage; simple to assemble and replace

• USB memory interface and key switch for ease of operation

• Compact and lightweight

Robust construction

• Easy maintenance

• Calibration curves calibrate manually

• Up to 15 calibration curves in the form of linear or quadratic functions

​

SLFA-6100

• Stores 5 sets of calibration

• Repeatability ranges from 5 ppm or less with a 1% Sulfur sample and 1.6 ppm or less with a 0% Sulfur sample

• Sample size ranges from 4 to 10 ml for one sample

• Weights approximately 21 kg

​

SLFA-6800

​

• Newly engineered turntable with a faster motor between sampling

MESA-7220

The MESA-7220 delivers the latest innovation in field measurement of S, Cl, and other elements in petroleum-based products. This analyzer is based on the latest advances in Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) technology. It utilizes a proprietary X-ray optical technology and produces a polarized, mono-chromatic X-ray source. This approach is critical for a user to achieve an ultra-low noise background for the best limits of detection for S, Cl and other elements. This provides excellent performance at high concentration (multiple wt. % levels), simultaneous multi-element analysis, and applicability over a wide range of sample types and excellent low ppm capabilities. The MESA-7220 performance is well established, as it is compliant with ASTM and ISO International Sulfur Determination Norms:

​

                                                ASTM D7220                              EN ISO 8754                        IP 532

                                                ASTM D4294                              EN ISO13032

                                                ASTM D4929C                            EN ISO20847

 

Key Features:

• Simultaneous element analysis

• One calibration – for multiple petroleum matrices over a wide dynamic range

• Dynamic Analysis Range:  Sulfur:0.7 mg/kg – 10.0 wt% Chlorine: 0.6 mg/kg – 10.0 wt%

• Various sample types including liquids, solids, pastes, powders, films and pellets

• No purge or combustion gases required

• Correction for Oxygen interference that can affect Sulfur results significantly in other analyzers

• User defined measurement times (90 - 600 seconds)

• Single digit ppm repeatability achieved on low level samples

• Multiple Calibration Curve capability with easy storage and retrieval for matrix matching

• Rugged, user serviceable Kapton Windows

• Accurately measures sulfur, chlorine and other elements in the presence of moisture
