Importance Of Analyzers
Midstream analyzers play a crucial role in oil and gas operations by ensuring accurate measurement and monitoring during transportation and processing. They enhance accuracy, allowing operators to detect and measure hydrocarbons, VOCs, and contaminants in real time. These analyzers also improve process control, optimizing flow rates and preventing inefficiencies that could lead to product loss or equipment damage. Additionally, they ensure regulatory compliance by detecting harmful substances and maintaining industry standards, reducing environmental risks and operational penalties. Reliable analyzers are essential for maintaining safety, efficiency, and profitability in midstream operations.
How Our Analyzers Work
Our analyzers utilize advanced technology to separate and measure target compounds such as hydrocarbons, VOCs, and H₂S in real time without the need for sample conditioning or consumables. The 204 PermaStream™ analyzer employs metal-oxide sensors to accurately quantify hydrocarbons and VOCs, eliminating false readings and ensuring precise detection. The 205 PermaStream™ analyzer uses rateometric-colorimetric detection to measure H₂S levels with high sensitivity and reliability. Designed for low maintenance, our analyzers operate efficiently in harsh environments, providing continuous, real-time monitoring that enhances accuracy, safety, and compliance in midstream operations.

KECO analyzers play a crucial role in pipeline quality assurance by providing real-time, continuous monitoring of critical gas components such as hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), carbon dioxide (CO₂), total sulfur, and oxygen. Accurate measurement of these components ensures compliance with industry standards, prevents corrosion, and maintains the integrity of the pipeline infrastructure.
KECO offers gas analyzers for compression and storage sites. The H₂S Analyzer accurately detects hydrogen sulfide for safety compliance. The Dual H₂S & CO₂ Analyzer monitors both gases at once using advanced sensors. The CarbonHound CO₂ Analyzer tracks CO₂ in pipelines with minimal maintenance. All models are built tough for harsh environments with explosion-proof, weather-resistant, and temperature-controlled designs.
Designed to withstand harsh conditions, KECO analyzers feature explosion-proof enclosures suitable for hazardous areas, weather-resistant packaging for outdoor installations, and internal heaters with thermostats to prevent freezing and maintain optimal operating temperatures. These robust designs ensure reliable performance and longevity in demanding industrial environments.
KECO analyzers utilize a direct sample extraction method where a sample is drawn from the pipeline and directed to the analyzer’s input. The gas then flows past a specific detection medium, such as a lead-acetate tape for H₂S measurement, allowing for accurate quantification based on the rate of color change.
KECO analyzers incorporate pressure regulators and flow meters to maintain consistent sample conditions, ensuring accurate measurements despite fluctuations in pipeline pressure and flow rates. Additionally, the analyzers are designed to minimize zero drift and provide stable readings over time.
Yes, KECO analyzers are equipped with communication interfaces such as RS-485 and TCP/IP Ethernet, supporting protocols like Modbus. This enables seamless integration with SCADA systems for remote monitoring, diagnostics, and control.
