New Moisture Detector
02.07.09
Extractive sample systems are widely used for gas analysis in process and emission applications. Reliable results of the analysis and the lifetime of the measuring device depend on the sufficient removal of particulates and condensate from the sample gas stream.
While particulates are retained in the filters, the condensate is removed by lowering the dew point of the gas stream. For this purpose thermoelectric or compressor driven coolers are preferred.
For the protection of the analyzer, moisture detectors are installed downstream the cooler, in case of moisture leakage. These detectors signal deviations from the “norm” and thus raise alarms or equivalent measures.
Buhler Technologies, a leading supplier of comprehensive range of products for sample conditioning and gas analysis, presents a new moisture detector enriching the existing range of detectors.
The new FF-AU-IG1K only needs a 24v DC power supply. Sensor and transmitters are accommodated in a small shell and are designed to be placed directly at the point of use.
Like all other moisture detector models, the new type has a G1/4” BSP boss and fits into adequate inline adaptors or the bypass port of a last chance filter which is located directly upstream the analyzer.
For this connection a M12 socket is provided. The unit has a self-monitoring function and is equipped with status LEDs.
The new moisture detector significantly reduces installation costs.
