Dominion choose Michell for unique portable gas trans-fill system
The Cermet II I.S hygrometer from Michell Instruments is an integral part of a new portable gas filling plant, developed by Dominion Gas. The Portable Gas Trans-fill System (PGTS) operates both on- and off-shore in the harshest of environments. It is thought to be the first of system of its kind.
Dominion has a long history of using the Cermet II I.S, which made it a natural choice for the PGTS. The company has used the instrument in a variety of applications over a number of years, such as the monitoring of welding mixes, CNG and natural gas in both process and storage applications.
