Precision optics and advanced electronics make Chemtrac Particle Counters perform with unparalleled accuracy.
Chemtrac&s patented sensor flow cell is externally mounted to eliminate any possibility of water damage to counter electronics. A constant head flow controller provides a simple reliable sample system. The PC 2400 communicates digitally using a nonproprietary serial interface which emulates the Optomux Opto 22 protocol. Ninety six (96) counters can be multi-dropped on a single RS485 serial communications loop up to 4000 feet. Tracware 2001 is Chemtrac&s software for communicating with the PC 2400 Particle Counters. Tracware includes real-time and historical trending capabilities for particle counts alarms and auxiliary inputs such as turbidity flow rate headloss etc. Chemtrac offers server software (OPC DDE) which supports particle count data auxiliary inputs and alarm conditions for third party SCADA integration. Up to four isolated analog outputs are available per sensor for particle counts. |

SPECIFICATIONS
|
|
|
The Chemtrac Systems Inc. Laser Particle Counter model PC2400 combines simplicity of operation with powerful performance to set the standard for on-line particle counting. The external sensor contains the laser diode light source flow cell and detector circuit. The sample is passed through the flow cell and pulses corresponding to each particle are output from the detector circuit. The size and quantity of these pulses is then translated into particle size and quantity information. The sensor detector circuit is sealed in a NEMA rated enclosure separate from the main enclosure. This feature allows the sample to be passed through the flow cell without entering the main enclosure and exposing the electronics to potential leakage.
