Chemical analysis at-line for the process industry
The 'Process Lab' range of instruments, a new 'At-line' range of field analysers to expand the success of the Titrando range of laboratory titrators, is now available from Metrohm
The advantages to the process industry, are the Industrial PC and I/O controller, for sending information to process control systems.
The system will automatically monitor a complete process line for the phosphating of metal surfaces.
It can also analyse the phosphate bath and the degreasing and cleaning baths.
Typical analysis for these are pH, conductivity, free and total alkalinity for cleaning and rinsing baths.
Also free and total acids, nitrite, hydrogen peroxide, zinc and fluoride for phosphating baths.
All of this analysis is carried out in the Process Lab, without operator intervention, and results are relayed to the process controller so remedial action for bath quality is regulated automatically. Request a free brochure from Applikon Analytical ...
