Shown for the first time in Europe at Achema 2003, new Swagelok modular platform components and software make it easy to develop and assemble complete process analyser and sample-handling systems

New Swagelok modular platform components, together with new configurator software, make it easy to develop and assemble complete process analyser and sample-handling systems using an ANSI/ISA 76.00.02 - compliant miniature modular design Thanks to this new approach, system designers can greatly reduce the size, weight, and flow path volume of their process analysis and sampling systems, while reducing the costs required to design, build, and maintain them

Swagelok modular platform components consist of: Surface mounts, including shut-off, needle, metering, toggle, and check valves, as well as filters; substrates; manifolds.

The system meets all requirements of the ANSI/ISA 76.00.02 specification for the 1.5 inch (38.2 mm) footprint.

The configurator software allows the user to place, define, and connect surface mount components on a computerised layout grid.

This configurator identifies all of the additional flow connectors that are necessary to build the fluid system, and generates a bill of materials and assembly diagram to simplify ordering and final assembly of the MPC series assembly.

The standard ANSI/ISA-76.00.02, entitled "Modular Component Interfaces for Surface-Mount Fluid Distribution Components", establishes the properties and physical dimensions that define the interface for surface-mount fluid distribution components with elastomeric sealing devices, used within process analyser and sample-handling systems.

The interface controls the dimensions and location of the sealing surfaces to allow change of just one element of the system without modification of the entire system, making the system modular from both a design and maintenance standpoint.
