						Chemical Process MonitoringDistributed Sensor Arrays:  A New Architecture for Process Mass Spectrometers (PMS)
 
 Problems with "mainframe" PMS:
 Large, expensive, high maintenance costs
						Long sample lines are expensive to install and maintain
						Time-multiplexed sample point analysis
						Mainframe failure brings down entire system
 
 Distributed Array Solution:
 Small distributed sensors feature low-cost, disposable analyzers
						At-point sensors eliminate long sample lines
						Dedicated, real-time monitoring and control
						System tolerant of individual sensor failures
 
 Ceramitron sensors offer a flexible, scalable solution as plant needs change.
 
 ISA and NeSSI-compatible—Small footprint Ceramitron sensors are ideal 
						for integration into the latest ANSI ISA-SP76 sampling system configurations 
						and the exciting NeSSI architecture currently under development.

								advantage in the highly competitive chemical and gas process monitoring 
								market. |  Back to Applications |  |
