Measuring conditions

Measurement path

0.3 ... 12 m (other path lengths on request)

Dust load

The influence of dust is very complex and depends on the path length and particle size. The optical attenuation increases exponentially at longer path lengths. Smaller particles also have a very large influence on the optical attenuation. With high dust load, long path length and small particle size, the technical support at Siemens should be consulted.

Purging

Nitrogen is permissible for purging on the sensor side. Nitrogen, steam, air and gases which are not subject to the pressure equipment directive Cat. 2 are permissible as purging gases on the process side.

Purging with instrument air, N₂
