Continuous Gas Analyzers - CALOMAT 6

CALOMAT 6 - Hydrogen and Noble Gas Audio Overview

For continuous measurement of hydrogen and noble gases, the thermal conductivity of the sample gas mixture is measured and used to calculate the concentration. Only binary gas mixtures can be measured directly. If more than two components are present, the concentration of all other constituents must be measured separately using other measuring methods. The CALOMAT 6 can carry out internal cross correction after transmission of the external measuring results. There is no need for an external computer.

The CALOMAT 6 is notable for its high measuring range dynamics (e.g. 0-1% and 0-100% H2, can be parameterized) and a low T90 time.

The CALOMAT 6 is a high-end analyzer available in a 19" design or in a robust field unit for mounting in the open air. With its additional monitoring unit, the CALOMAT 6 with field unit is suitable to be installed in Ex zone 1 or 2. In general, its range of use includes all areas, from the measurement of gas purity to use in process monitoring and controls to insure product quality.

The analyzers can easily be added to an integrated automation system via RS 485, PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA interfaces, and can be parameterized and operated using the PDM tool. For fast and easy maintenance, the analyzers can also communicate with the Siprom GA software tool that is integrated into the Ethernet via TCP/IP.

CALOMAT Benefits

• Small T90 time due to micromechanical-produced SI sensor
• Universally usable hardware base
• High measuring range dynamic (e.g. 0 ... 1%, 0 ... 100%, 95 ... 100% H2)
• Integrated interfering gas correction, external calculation not required
• Open interface architecture (RS 485, RS 232, PROFIBUS)
• SIPROM GA network for maintenance and servicing information (option)
• Electronics and physics: gas-tight isolation, purging is possible, IP65, high service life even in harsh environments
• EEx(p) for zones 1 and 2 (according to 94/9/EC (ATEX 2G andATEX 3G)), Class I Div 2 (CSA) Ex(n).
