Product Overview

The Servomex SpectraExact 2500F is a digital non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) photometric analyzer designed for accurate, real-time monitoring of single-component gases and liquids in industrial processes. It is suitable for hazardous area installations and offers high reliability, accuracy, and stability with a flexible and user-friendly interface.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Compatible with various hazardous locations (ATEX, UKEx, IECEx, UKCA, CE-marked) and pending North American approvals.
  • Low maintenance with non-depleting technology and separate sample cell for easy cleaning and servicing.
  • Supports Modbus TCP for remote digital communication and control.
  • Wide operating sample temperature range (0-180°C) and pressure (up to 10 barg).
  • Footprint compatible with previous 2500 series analyzers for cost-effective replacement.
  • Optional heated cell for measurement stability and high integrity cell with specialist seals for toxic gases.

Applications

Typical applications include process control in ethylene production, toluene di-isocyanate production, pure terephthalic acid production, and monitoring water content in solvents such as ethylene dichloride. It is suitable for measuring toxic, flammable, and corrosive gases and liquids.

Technical Specifications

  • Warm-up Time: Typically 2-10 hours

Typical Measurable Gases and Liquids

Includes acetaldehyde, acetic acid, acetone, acetylene, ammonia, benzene, butane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, ethylene, freons, hydrogen chloride, methane, nitric oxide, phosgene, propane, sulfur dioxide, toluene, water vapor, and others. Liquid measurements include water in ethylene dichloride, propylene oxide, and vinyl chloride monomer.

Compliance and Safety Certifications

  • Hazardous area approvals: IECEx Zone 2/21, ATEX Cat 3G/2D, UKEx Cat 3G/2D
  • Electrical safety: IEC 61010-1 certified
  • Functional safety: Hardware compliance to SIL 2 (IEC 61508) pending
  • Certified for use with flammable and toxic gases and dusts

Configuration and Customization

The analyzer can be configured based on measurement requirements including gas type, concentration range, sample temperature, pressure, dew point, and particulate loading. Sample wetted materials include 316 stainless steel (standard), Hastelloy®, Monel®, and Titanium. Elastomer seals options include Viton® (standard), Chemraz®, and PTFE. Additional options include sample temperature compensation and heated sample cells for enhanced measurement stability.

Physical and Installation Details

  • Weight: 27 to 50 kg (55 to 110 lbs)
  • Dimensions: Width 284 mm, Depth 241-500 mm, Length 620-1620 mm depending on configuration
  • Mounting: Wall mountable
  • Sample connection: 1/4" OD tube

Utilities and Power

  • Supply voltage: 115/230 Vac ±15% or 100/200 Vac ±15%, 50/60 Hz
  • Power consumption: 120 VA (without heated cell), 300 VA (with heated cell)
  • Zero and span gases: Application dependent, typically nitrogen or liquid for zero gas

Best Practices and Recommendations

  • Regular calibration frequency depends on application.
  • Ensure sample gas is clean, non-condensing, and free from particulates.
  • Use heated cells for gas samples requiring stable temperature measurement.
  • Choose appropriate sample wetted materials and seals based on chemical compatibility.
  • Confirm hazardous area classification and approvals before installation.
