MCS300P Multi Component Process Analysis System

MCS300P Multi Component Process Analysis System

MCS300P – Simultaneous process monitoring of up to 6 measuring components

The MCS300P is an extractive process photometer for measurement of gaseous or liquid media. It measures IR- and VIS-active components with variable measuring ranges from very low (ppm) to high (vol%) concentrations. For monitoring of toxic or flammable mixtures, it has special process cuvettes with safety devices like twin-seals and purge gas feeds. The heatable cuvettes made of corrosive-resistant materials have a high pressure resistance. An automatic adjustment device an innovative operation concept and modern communication protocols make the MCS300P an all-purpose photometer, also for potentially explosive atmospheres.

The heated system components prevent a temperature drop below the water and acid dewpoint. This results in lower maintenance and higher reliablity and long-time stablity of the system, also under rugged and demanding conditions. Automatic adjustment functions, easy operation concept and modern communication protocols results in a quick and easy integration into a local control system network.
