Residual Chlorine Analyser that likes to chat (15/02/08)
Process Instruments have introduced an innovative Residual Chlorine Analyser that actually 'talks'.
Claimed to be the first of its kind, the device uses a GSM/GPRS modem to send texts to alert the user when it needs maintaining or calibrating. As an option it can also come with its own autocalibrator, which is perfect for difficult to reach treatment works, secondary chlorination stations or unmanned sites.
The CRIUS 3500 uses bufferless sensors and can act as a data collector gathering information from other less sophisticated instruments on site. It can also offer PID control as standard.
It was developed in collaboration with the University of Manchester and is the world's first auto-calibrating residual chlorine analyser with remote communications. According to the manufacturers the CRIUS 3500, which comes with a TCP/IP Port, USB, Modbus and even Bluetooth,' is a highly reliable and stable chlorine analyser that only talks when it needs to,' so that text messages to the user are kept to a minimum.
