Overview

Know your gas — at every stage

Biogas composition changes continuously with feedstock and digester conditions. Online analysis of methane, carbon dioxide, oxygen and hydrogen sulphide is essential to control digestion and upgrading, protect engines and compressors, and prove CBG quality before dispatch or grid injection.

Urjika supplies two types of analyzer: a cabinet-mounted online analyzer that monitors up to eight measuring points continuously, and a rugged portable analyzer for spot checks, leak checks and verification in the field.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Q.Which analyzer do I need — online or portable?
Use an online analyzer for continuous process and quality monitoring. A portable analyzer complements it for spot checks, verification and leak detection. PNGRB guidelines for grid injection expect both continuous online monitoring and a handheld analyser at the plant.
Q.Is the portable analyzer safe in hazardous areas?
Yes. It is ATEX certified for use in Zone 1 hazardous areas.
Q.How many points can one online analyzer monitor?
Up to eight measuring locations, for example digester outlet, upgrading inlet and outlet, and compressor suction.
Q.Can the online analyzer connect to our PLC or SCADA?
Yes. It provides 4–20 mA and RS485 Modbus outputs, with optional PROFIBUS or PROFINET.
Specifications are indicative and may vary with project requirements, applicable codes and approvals. Final data is confirmed in the project datasheet.
