Clora Online Chlorine Analyzer

Chlorine contributes significantly to the corrosion of plant equipment and must be treated accordingly. With ever-changing crude quality and potential for process upsets, chlorine levels can shift quickly, making real-time analytical results invaluable. Powered by MWDXRF®, Clora® Online uses ASTM D7536 technology and delivers real-time, continuous analysis of total chlorine from 0.2 ppmw up to 3000 ppmw. By monitoring desalted crude, a plant can optimize performance and immediately see impacts of crude changes (including organic chloride). This process analyzer is ATEX and NEC certified for hazardous area locations.

Applications:

• Upstream desalting, refining, power generation and effluent management
• Total chlorine analysis in:

  – Raw and desalted crudes

  – Water and effluent streams

  – Refinery process streams

  – Finished product
