ABB launches Sensi+™ - a revolutionary analyzer for natural gas quality monitoring

- Single unit for continuous, simultaneous measurement of contaminants in H2 small, high 2O and CO2 natural gas streams for trade handover, tariff compliance and process monitoring

- ABB's proven laser technology virtually eliminates false readings and provides fast response for reliable process control

- Designed for remote and hazardous locations, Sensi+ delivers superior performance and low cost of ownership

ABB's Sensi+ analyzer offers a reliable new solution that simplifies and reduces pipeline operation and maintenance costs.

It enables safer, easier and more efficient pipeline monitoring and operation with a single device that

The device can analyze up to three contaminants (H2 minor, 2O major, CO2) accurately and in real time in any natural gas stream.

Its fast response also enables quick reaction to process disturbances, which can help reduce waste and methane emissions.

Reducing the risk and impact of natural gas contaminants often presents challenges for natural gas pipeline operators, the processing industry and natural gas utilities.

Companies need to manage multiple technologies and equipment to obtain a complete analysis. This traditional approach is complex, prone to failure and costly.

Traditionally, each contaminant typically requires a separate analyzer, maintenance program and specific skills to operate, validate and service.

With the new Sensi+ and the market-leading range of natural gas chromatographs,” said Jean-Rene Roy, Global Business Line Manager, Analytics, ABB.

ABB becomes the first company to offer customers an integrated gas quality solution that combines composition and contaminant measurements into one compact,

modular, economical and reliable system. “Sensi+ analyzers also help customers meet trade handover requirements by

minimize internal corrosion of system infrastructure and prevent physical damage to mission-critical assets.”

Sensi+ measurements require approximately six times lower sample flow rates compared to other technologies, which reduces the analyzer's total carbon emissions and wasted natural gas in the atmosphere.
