Water Particle Counting System (WPCS)

Hardware Specifications

ENCLOSURE – NEMA 4X

COMMUNICATION – Via RS-232, RS-485, Modbus ASCII, Modbus RTU, 4-20mA or Fiber Optic

POWER – 12 VDC, transformer included (0.5A)

CHANNEL SIZES – Eight user selectable channels. The user can select any combination of size ranges within the size range of the sensor (see below).

SIZE RANGE – 2 µm to 400 µm standard*, optional ranges 1 µm-150 µm, 1.3 µm-400 µm, 5 µm-600 µm, 10 µm-800 µm, 2 µm-800 µm** or other custom ranges.

* new expanded range
** new sensor

SENSOR RESOLUTION – 5% at 10 µm and 9% or better at 2 µm. Tested per ASTM F658.

COUNTING MODES – Cumulative or differential.

EXPECTED LASER LIFE – 7.5 years MTBF.

CONCENTRATION LIMIT - 18,000 counts/mL standard, diluters for higher concentrations are available

TEMPERATURE – 32 ºF – 150 ºF

PRESSURE – Maximum 100 psig incoming, which is reduced through IBR plumbing to no greater than 5 psig at the sensor. IBR also makes a pressure reducer for pressures greater than 100 psig.

AUXILIARY INPUTS – Two 4 mA-20 mA inputs per particle counter

SIGNAL TO NOISE – Greater than 3:1

FLOW RATE – 25 mL/min. and 60 mL/min. standard, 100mL/min. and 120 mL/min. available upon customer request.

FLOW MONITORING – A transducer provides real-time flow data (differential pressure across an orifice) for dynamic correction of particle counts/mL, as well as data for high/low flow alarms.

MEMORY – 300 sample runs

OPTIONAL – 2 or 4 4 mA-20 mA outputs

 


IBR Intellitest Software can display data from up to 32 particle counters simultaneously
