Chemical Process Monitoring
Distributed 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.
A microscale Ceramitron MS sensor on
a NeSSI Generation II or III footprint could provide a significant OEM
advantage in the highly competitive chemical and gas process monitoring
market. |
