The analyzer measures moisture on-line by monitoring the vibrational frequency change of a hygroscopically sensitized quartz-crystal that is exposed alternately to wet sample and dry reference gas for 30 second periods. The reference gas is sample gas passed through a molecular sieve dryer to remove virtually all its moisture content. Many moisture analyzers are susceptible to attack by the process stream. Unsaturated hydrocarbons, compressor oils, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and others can permanently damage or destroy trace moisture sensors. Even worse, a fouled sensor can become completely unresponsive to moisture, yet continue to give an output, which could leave your process unmonitored. The 5000's unique differential measurement principle, combined with continuous diagnostics, ensures reliable performance in critical moisture applications. Field unit The field unit is explosion-proof and is certified to comply with numerous international standards. It contains a sample cell, switching valves and associated electronic circuits mounted internally and a flowmeter, flow control valves and back pressure regulator mounted externally. Controller Designed for use in industrial areas, the controller is available with several standard and optional certifications. It provides all control and data processing, as well as a keypad and display interface. Outputs include RS-485 bidirectional serial data, two fully configurable 4-20 mA analog signals, and three configurable alarms. It can be separated from the field unit by up to 600 m (2000 ft). External dryer The external dryer supplies the analyzer with reference gas, by using a molecular sieve to dry the actual process gas.
