In 2015, SECA trade partners restricted sulphur emissions to 0.1% sulphur content within 24 nautical miles from shore. On January 1, 2020, the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) revised MARPOL Annex VI rule went into effect, which lowered the maximum global sulphur cap for emissions from 3.50% to 0.50%. The Emission Control Areas (ECAs) remains at the 2015 standard of 0.10% sulphur content. To ensure compliance with both regulations, merchant ships need to strictly monitor sulphur content in fuel. The Sea16 was designed to meet these needs with easy, rapid, and precise sulphur analysis.
Robust calibration with one curve covering complete range
Powered by Monochromatic Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (HD XRF®) technology
Complies with ISO 8754 and ASTM D4294
Rapid Sulphur Testing with Sea16
Sea16 delivers rapid and precise sulphur testing with a limit of detection as low as 0.0050% well below the new regulatory limits. To ensure lab quality results and compliance with methods approved for marine fuel testing (covered under ISO 8217), Sea16 is compliant with ISO 8754 and ASTM D4294 in the concentration range of 0.01%-5%.
Easy-to-use and Robust Design
The Sea16 was designed to provide reliable, rapid, and robust sulphur analysis, with an innovative sample carrier that is compatible with both sample bottle and sample cup. The sample is inserted with the sample window vertical, ensuring that any accidental sample leak goes into a drip tray which could be simply removed and cleaned. If desired, sample preparation is as easy as replacing the sample bottle cap with Z-cap and built-in thin film. This analyzer can be operated by a crew member with minimal training, in some cases less than 15 minutes.
