This in-line process sensor delivers high measuring precision in a compact design.
SCHMIDT + HAENSCH’s customizable iCS concentration sensor opens up a new field of process analysis in particularily tight conditions. Thanks to the new design, the actual sensor has the size of a golf ball, resulting in a highly efficient and compact construction.
The customizable concentration sensor opens up a new field of miniaturization for process instruments.
Thanks to its new design, the actual sensor has the size of a golf ball. It design requires fewer parts, resulting in a highly efficient and compact construction. As a true sensor, it can be used in applications which can not be met by conventional refractometers.
If you are dealing with minimal volumes, space-limited installations or mobile operation, SCHMIDT + HAENSCH has another ultimate solution for you here.
Designed to be easily integrated into your process controls, it can be connected directly to your PLC via Modbus or RS-232 interface. Integrated functions such as temperature measurement, cleanliness control and filling level detection ensure a self-monitoring system.
- Compact and light size, easily fitting for tight conditions
- Simple, flexible, and uncompromising integration into your process
- Technically easy to implement and low-cost integration as well as maintenance
- Longstanding, proven technology especially effective for monitoring ethylene gylcol concentration
