Infrared Multi Analyzer
IM series
10-wavelength, 4-constituent, High-speed/High-repeatability, Multi-interface, Easy to operate
The IM series is an on-line multi IR wavelength analyzer
utilizing the infrared absorption technology for measuring
product constituent and/or thickness. Signal processing
capabilities are built into the compact all-in-one detector
unit for easy installation and operation. A maximum of 99
calibration curves can be stored into the detector memory
for numerous measurement applications. The detector canbe used by itself or connected to a PC/plant control system, as both analog and digital outputs are provided. A remote setting display unit, connectable up to 9 detector
units, can be used to setup various detector functions andalso displays measured values.
