PR-43-GC General Type Compact Process Refractometer

Brand: K-Patents Process Instruments

The K-Patents General type refractometer PR-43-GC system consists of a compact refractometer and a graphical user interface. 

The refractometer is a stand-alone device capable of operating independently. It has a measurement range of 0 to 100 % and it provides an Ethernet or 4–20 mA output signal proportional to the temperature-compensated concentration value for real-time process control. Different user interface options range from a rugged, multichannel, industrial computer to a compact light-weight and a web-based version, and allow the user to select the most preferred way to access and use the refractometer measurement and diagnostics data.

K-Patents Process refractometer PR-43-GC is an ideal all-round instrument for measuring the concentrations of a wide range of chemicals and other liquids in industrial applications. 

K-Patents Process refractometer PR-43-GC is designed for harsh environments that can be corrosive, abrasive, subject to extreme temperatures, pressures, vibration or contamination, humidity and dust, or any combinations of these factors. It is installed in the main processing line, bypass line or vessel either directly with Flange or Sandvik L coupling process connection, or via a large variety of cost-effective and easy to mount flow cell options. The user interface of the refractometer can be installed locally in the field, remotely in the control room or in both locations by connecting several user interfaces in a network.
