Title: Evaluation of moisture sensors for NGV fueling station applications. Topical report, November 1994-April 1996

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:442325

Moisture content in natural gas has become an important issue for compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations. The objective of this project was to evaluate the performance of four hygrometer technologies and identify the most cost effective designs suitable for CNG fueling station applications. The four technologies evaluated were: aluminum oxide, ceramic dewpoint, electrolytic, and silicon chip sensors. The hygrometer performance was evaluated with respect to accuracy, response time, repeatability, operating conditions, maintenance requirements, and cost.
