Accurate and Rugged Combustion Analysis

One portable system for quantifying slip, emissions, and destruction efficiency in real time.

Methane Slip Measurement for Compressor and Reciprocating Engines

Methane slip—unburned methane exiting the combustion process—represents a major portion of total methane emissions from natural gas engines. The SEMTECH® Methane Slip Analyzer enables operators to:

  • Quantify methane slip under various load and fuel conditions
  • Evaluate air-fuel ratio and combustion efficiency using integrated CO, CO₂, NOx, and O₂ sensors
  • Support engine tuning strategies (e.g., lean-burn vs. rich-burn optimization)
  • Validate emission reductions following maintenance or upgrades
  • Demonstrate compliance with evolving methane regulations

The analyzer integrates seamlessly with CAN-based engine control modules for synchronized data acquisition and performance diagnostics.

Portable, Connected, and Ready for the Field

The Methane Slip Analyzer operates on rechargeable Li-Ion batteries or external power, offering full functionality in field or lab environments. Key features include:

  • Wi-Fi–enabled web interface accessible via tablet, laptop, or mobile device
  • Real-time data visualization and remote control
  • API for easy technology integration and connection
  • Compact, rugged design suited for compressor stations and remote flare sites

Multi-Gas Analysis for Complete Combustion Insight

Beyond methane, the SEMTECH® platform integrates additional sensor modules for:

  • CO / CO₂ (NDIR): Combustion balance and carbon efficiency
  • O₂ (Electrochemical): Air-fuel ratio and combustion completeness
  • NOx (Electrochemical): Trade-off analysis between methane slip and NOx control
  • Temperature and Pressure: Flow normalization via third-party pitot tubes

These combined measurements yield mass-based emission rates in grams per second, grams per unit of fuel, or grams per unit of work across test cycles.
