Preparing the Process Analysis System for Usage

5.2.6.5. Extraction Points for Analysis Gas

Please take into account the following when setting up the extraction points for
biogas:

Positioning: If possible, mount them on top or at the side of the gas pipe, so that the analysis
gas pipes are protected against condensate on a long-term basis. By no means should an
extraction point be located at the bottom part of a gas pipe (Figure 15).

2: Fitting sleeves (Rp ½”) 5: Precision pressure regulator
3: Ball valve (R ½”) 6: Measuring gas pipe to process analysis system

Figure 15: Gas extraction point on top of a gas pipe with ball valve and gas filter. With high
pressures in the gas pipe a pressure filter has to be implemented. The analysis gas pipe is a
riser.

Connection: R ½” on the ball valve


Cut-off position: As the first component a ball valve is fixed to the extraction point to allow
closing off the pipe.
Filtering: Each gas extraction point is fitted with a particle filter behind the ball valve. This filter
allows even in cold ambient temperatures for a condensation of the gas outside the analysis
gas pipe.
Pressure: If the system pressure at the extraction point exceeds 20 mbar of relative high
pressure, then pressure reducers (provided by Awite) have to be used which produce a stable
output pressure of approx. 5 mbar of relative high pressure at a maximum of 400 mbar of
relative high pressure at input.

Preparing the Process Analysis System for Usage

From the extraction point the analysis gas pipes are led to the condensate traps in front of the
analysis system (Figure 16).

5.2.6.6. Laying of Analysis Gas Pipes

· Material: Durable plastic (4/6 mm or ⅛“/¼“) or stainless steel (6 mm or ¼“), pressure-resistant


· Don’t insulate pipes
· From the gas extraction point install a rising analysis gas pipe for the first 1-2 meters
· Run in shield tubes, cable lines etc. to the process analysis system
· Pipe length: With the given cross-sections up to 100 m of suction length possible (variable
suction times)
· Run the pipes in a way that makes it possible to replace them after a couple of years

Please make sure that exhaust pipes always run separately out into the open.
The discharge of other waste gases into the same pipe is not permitted. The waste gas
must not be discharged into other gas-conveying areas.
