The Latest in Process Analyzer Technology<br />
All the newest devices to help you see what’s really going on in your processes.<br />
FULL-SPECTRUM ANALYZER<br />
Model IPS-4 full-spectrum<br />
analyzer measures up to<br />
eight components using the<br />
most favorable absorptions in<br />
both UV and IR spectrums. It<br />
is equipped with analog (4-20<br />
mA) and digital communications<br />
capabilities, including<br />
RS232, RS485 with Modbus RTU protocol and a built-in<br />
fast Ethernet port, and features a stainless-steel, 22-key keypad,<br />
and a four-line vacuum fluorescent display.<br />

SPRING-LOADED REGULATOR<br />
RHPS series LRS(H)4<br />
spring-loaded pressure regulator<br />
provides high accuracy<br />
for analyzer applications. It is<br />
constructed of 316L stainless<br />
steel and available in many<br />
configurations. It is designed<br />
to handle 400 bar (5,801 psig)<br />
inlet pressure (2.2mm seat), and features a low-torque, nowear<br />
stem and removable hardened cap. Temperature performance<br />
range is from -20 °C to 80 °C (-4 °F to 176 °F).<br />

PURGE CONTROLLER<br />
The ePurge X is a purge controller<br />
with fully automated<br />
purge and pressurization<br />
functions. Its digital mass<br />
flow sensor self-regulates<br />
purge duration. The purge<br />
pressure range is minimum 4<br />
bar (60 psi) and maximum 8<br />
bar (115 psi). The operating temperature range is -20 °C to<br />
55 °C. ePurge X is certified in hazardous areas to NEC Class<br />
1, Division 1, Groups C, D and IEC: Zone 1, Group IIB.<br />
