Mettler Toledo Process Analytics TDL Analyzers
No Downtime from In-Situ O₂ Measurement
February 2018,
MARIETTA, GA ~
When there is a risk of explosion in production vessels, oxygen sensor accuracy and speed of response are paramount. For a leading producer of performance additives, an in situ O2 analyzer is providing high performance with almost zero maintenance.
Phosphorus pentasulfide is an inorganic compound used in the production of lubricants, pesticides and flotation agents. It is extremely flammable, which is why an inert atmosphere must be maintained during its production.
A closed extractive measurement system and paramagnetic analyzer can be used to monitor O2 levels inside production line equipment. Keeping moisture in the gas sample at a very low level avoids negative effects on analyzer response time and performance.
Italian company needs fast, accurate O2 measurement
Advanced technology provides measurement confidence
Other than annual verification and periodic cleaning of the analyzerʼs optics, GPro 500 sensors require no maintenance, so they can be relied on to provide continuous, reliable measurements throughout production processes. The GPro 500 is installed in situ when process conditions allow, or is connected to an extraction system if the gas stream has a very high particle load and moisture content, as is the case at Italmatch.
Six months without maintenance
