APPLICATIONS
Hydrogen (H2) concentration, purity, upper and lower explosion level (LEL & UEL)
Analysis of process gases
Solution for gas chromotography (TCD MEMS)
Customization and R&D
The compact and robust transmitter TCD3000 is recommended for precise, fast and sensitive measurement of (quasi-) binary gas mixtures.
Due to the stainless-steel housing and the IP67 protection class, the unit can be used safely in harsh environments.
The unit is completely equipped with metal-to-metal connections, so that a high degree of tightness and pressure resistance over 200 bars can be guaranteed.
The gas-carrying parts and the sensor are corrosion-resistant:
The gas path is made of high-grade stainless steel 1.4404,
The sensor on the gas side is completely glazed.
In addition, the sensor is protected against condensation and dust.
The internal memory can store the curves for up to 99 gas pairs, so that the device can be easily adapted to changing measurement requirements.
The unit is connected to the process via axial pneumatic connections M10. Such a system makes assembly and disassembly in existing installations easier.
At the customer’s request, the wide range of adapters is available.
