Versatile analysis over a wide range of applications.
•
Microprocessor based electronics: 8-bit CMOS
microprocessor with 32 kB RAM and 128 kB ROM.
•
Three user definable output ranges (from 0-100 ppb through
0-100 ppm) allow best match to users process and
equipment, plus a fixed 100 ppm over range.
•
Auto Ranging allows analyzer to automatically select the
proper preset range for a given measurement. Manual
override allows the user to lock onto a specific range of
interest.
•
Two adjustable concentration alarms and a system failure
alarm.
•
Extensive self-diagnostic testing, at startup and on demand,
with continuous power-supply monitoring.
•
Two way RFI protection.
•
RS-232 serial digital port for use with a computer or other
digital communication device.
•
Four analog outputs: two for measurement (0–1 VDC and
Isolated 4–20 mA DC) and two for range identification.
•
Convenient and versatile, steel, flush-panel or rack-
mountable case with slide-out electronics drawer.
