LITERATURE ANNOUNCEMENT
Title: AcuPro Infrared Process Analyzer
Brochure
Summary: The
AcuPro Infrared Analyzer from Control Instruments
Corporation is an industrial strength analyzer with a
complete sampling system, heated optical cell, and
integrated controller for continuous measurement of
flammable and some combustible vapors. It can accurately
monitor a given range of solvents within a narrow band
to optimize both the safety and the economy of running a
process; it can also be used for mixtures of solvents in
processes where normal solvent concentrations are below
25% LFL.
This analyzer was built
on a robust and well-proven industrial analyzer
platform. Its unique sample delivery system is heated,
mirrorless, and free of moving parts which means it is
specifically designed to handle a wide variety of
process monitoring environments, specifically relatively
clean, low temperature, and low concentration
applications. In addition, the multiple wavelength
infrared detector allows the AcuPro to operate with
linearity and with common response factors, while
minimizing the need to continually recalibrate for
different solvents. All this is accomplished without
compromising safety, and in accordance with NFPA
guidelines.
Unlike other IR point
detectors the AcuPro, as its name suggests, was
specifically designed to perform accurately in
the process environment. It’s suitable for single
or select solvent ranges. These applications include,
Flexographic & Rotogravure Printing, Pharmaceutical,
Coating, Painting, Aerosol Filling, and many others. It
also has many impressive features to ensure safety and
extreme precision:
·
Low
Maintenance Features Enhance Accuracy
– Its mirrorless design
reduces the effects of contamination on the optical cell
and eliminates surfaces that fog, become dirty, and need
to focus. All sample-wetted parts are heated, including
the detector assembly, the optical cell, and sample
probe, which prevent errors from process temperature
changes and condensation of water vapor.
·
Superior
Response Time
– It has a fast response time; the entire system is less
than four seconds, due to its advanced signal processing
and proprietary detector technology. In addition, the
assembly mounts directly onto the process ductwork, as
close as possible to the sample pickup point.
·
Multiple
Wavelengths Detect a Broad Range of Solvents & Gases
–The AcuPro’s
multi-wavelength detector enables it to detect more
gases, including solvents like Alcohols, Acetates,
Ketones and Aromatics. This unique design element also
provides more precise readings.
·
Outputs
Provide Unmatched Reliability
– The AcuPro incorporates 6 built-in relays to ensure
that corrective action is initiated directly by the
analyzer, enabling failsafe conditions. Other standard
outputs include a 4-20mA analog output and an RS-485
serial port with Modbus protocol for digital access to
all readings and settings.
