Product catalog summary
Overview
This document provides detailed information about a thermal conductivity sensor designed for high-precision measurements of CO2, H2, and N2 in both dissolved and gaseous phases. The sensor is robust, easy to maintain, and suitable for harsh conditions.

Key Features
  • Low Detection Limits: Capable of detecting very low concentrations in both dissolved and gaseous applications with minimal drift.
  • Precision: Continuous measurement of CO2, H2, or N2 concentrations unaffected by other gases.
  • Low Maintenance: Requires only one annual maintenance, resistant to high temperatures and cleaning in place (CIP).
  • Fast Response: Response time of approximately 30 seconds.
  • Hygienic Design: Features a hygienic membrane cap.
  • Robust Construction: Made of stainless steel, ideal for harsh chemical conditions and high pressures.

Applications
  • In-line and package analysis
  • Dissolved and gaseous applications
  • Beverage production
  • Power-steam industry
  • Pharmaceutical industry

Technical Specifications
  • Measurement Principle: Gas diffuses through a semi-permeable membrane into a micro volume, where its thermal conductivity is measured.
  • Measurement Range: Varies from trace to saturation level, with specific ranges for different gases.
  • Temperature and Pressure: Operates between 0°C to 50°C and up to 20 bars.
  • Material: ANSI 316L, PFA, or Tefzel in contact with the sample.
  • Enclosure Protection: Rated IP65.

Operation Process
The sensor measures gas concentration by averaging the slope of successive conductivity curves. A purge process, controlled by an electronic card, is necessary to clear the micro-volume between measurements.

TC sensor datasheet-2

Thermal Conductivity Sensor - series 52201, 52401, 52501 The sensor operates on the following principle: the gas to measure diffuses from the sample into a micro volume contained in the sensor through a semipermeable membrane, and comes into contact with a gas thermal conductivity detector. The temperature and the change in thermal conductivity induced by the presence of the gas is measured. The duration of a single measurement is too short to get a reliable measure: successive measurements are made, which induce each time a conductivity curve. The average slope of each measurement curve determines...
