to individually manage twelve bulk storage tanks, 24/7. These enable better management and surveillance of the tank protection system and increased site-wide monitoring and control. “Traditionally, CP engineers relied on physical site
inspections to monitor corrosion levels and system performance,” explains Ian Loudon, international sales and marketing manager at Omniflex. “However, as regulations and standards continue to evolve, there is a growing need for data accessibility and transparency to meet reporting targets. This means engineers face the prospect of visiting sites to inspect difficult-to-access systems more often, something with is costly and disruptive. “Engen has 36 oil tanks spread across a large
geographical location, so it is time consuming for engineers to physically inspect and tabulate CP system parameters. In situations like these, taking advantage of remote monitoring for CP systems is a no brainer, since it saves the customer time and money in the long run and provides ongoing data integrity that guarantees corrosion is controlled.” “The new ICCP systems have been fitted to the
existing refurbished tanks, minimising disruption caused by the system installation,” continues Loudon. “The solution offers several key advantages over the old system, such as alarm condition alerts via SMS and email in the event of a problem, and access to a repository of real-time and historical data for improved management of tank assets.”

EndlEss capabilitiEs – ExtrEmEly compact dEsign
The DynamiQ-X NG2210 and DynamiQ-X NG2220 can be integrated into many locations of the natural gas infrastructure, including natural gas city gate stations, blending stations, natural gas conditioning stations, offshore systems and power-to-gas systems. With a volume of only 10L and weighing less than 15kg, the instruments are easy to transport and can be deployed anywhere for analyses, if local power and gas bottles are available.
Fast and accuratE gas analysErs
The instruments can accommodate two or three gas chromatograph (GC) units working in parallel, each performing a different GC analysis under individually optimised conditions. Each GC unit contains a state-of- the-art microchip-based injector and a
he new gas analyser DynamiQ-X NG2210 provides fast and accurate on-line monitoring of natural gas and delivers calorific values for composition control and
thermal conductivity detector (TCD) combined with a proven microbore GC column and is set with optimal chromatography conditions. This configuration enables an accurate instrument as well as a very short analysis time of less than a minute.
stand-alonE but Easy to maintain
DynamiQ-X is designed as a stand-alone working instrument that uses an integrated processor on a future-proof platform, so that it can carry out continuous monitoring. The instrument contains an easily exchangeable GC cartridge that allows fast local maintenance. In addition, a PC can be connected to the analyser at any location via a network connection.
sustainablE FuturE For thE gas industry
Sustainability and the facilitation of the energy transition are of global importance today. Qmicro by Sensirion has therefore developed the DynamiQ-X NG2210 and NG2220: as solutions to increase gas analysis capabilities and cover green gases, minimising the total cost of ownership to gas distributors. The analysers’ ability to store data for at least two years, also facilitates compliance with legislation and enables observation of long-term trends.
