Oil in Water Measuring System Model FLUORImat
Description:
The Oil in Water Measuring System Model FLUORImat is used for continuous monitoring of water / condensate.
It detects any oil contamination in water with high sensitivity.
Fluorescence principle:
Organic substances such as fats and oils are fluorescent.
When they are irradiated with UV light, they begin to glow.
Electronically excited molecules release energy and return to their ground state.
This process is known as fluorescence.
The emitted radiation has a longer wavelength than the radiation used for excitation.
Application:
The model FLUORImat is used to monitor water for the presence of oil contaminations. It enables the early detection of oil ingress and leaks.
The aim is to prevent environmental and system damage.
Special features:
The sensitivity of the system is further increased by the detection of a reflection component of the UV light in addition to the fluorescence.
The fluorescence of oils and greases can be enhanced by tracers in order to get a bettr visibility .
Installation:
Also the sensor can be installed directly in a pipe up to a nominal diameter of DN50.
For larger nominal diameters, it is recommended to measure in the bypass.
Process connections wetted materials and sealing materials can selected in accordance to the specific application requirements.
Features Process Photometer:
Dual wavelength absorption measurement method:
– Simultaneous measurement of absorbance at two different wavelengths, enables precise measurements
– compensates for the effects of turbidity, window contamination, lamp ageing, …
Calibration / maintenance interval typically 24 months (depending by application):
– Less maintenance and longer service life.
– Depending on the process conditions, calibration is usually carried out every 24 months.
Material Measuring cell typically stainless steel 316L / 1.4404
– The measuring cell is made of stainless steel.
– Other materials such as titanium, Hastelloy, Peek or PTFE are optionally available.
Measuring window: Sapphire:
– Sapphire is used as the window material.
– Other materials such as borosilicate or Plexiglas are optionally available.
Sealing material:
– The seals are made of FKM.
– Optionally, seals made of other materials such as FFKM, EPDM or silicone are available.
Process connections: DIN flanges, ANSI flanges, NPT, …:
– Various connection options for different process requirements.
Measuring range span: 0 – 0.1 AU up to 0 – 5 AU:
– The measuring range extends from 0 to 0.1 absorption units up to 0 – 5 absorption units.
Optional cleaning jets:
– A probe with nozzles for cleaning the measuring cell can be installed as an option.
Cleaning:
– The appliance is suitable for automated cleaning in the pipe (CIP).
