The CalorVal BTU Analyzer continuously measures the heating value (Calorific Value) of gaseous streams of industrial processes.
The CalorVal is an industrial strength assembly consisting of a heated flame cell and integrated controller that continuously measures the heating value (Calorific Value) of gaseous streams of industrial processes.
A carefully metered flame burns at a constant reference temperature inside an explosion proof measuring cell. A sample, drawn from the atmosphere to be monitored, is passed through the flame cell. A thermocouple measures changes in flame temperature. An increase in temperature is directly proportional to the heating value.
Autocalibration solenoids which allow remote activation of calibration tests are standard.
- Real time: Direct measure of calorific value
- Fast: Less than 3.5 seconds cell response time
- Universal: Highly uniform response to a wide variety of combustibles
- Continuous: Ongoing measurement, not batched
- Reliable: Not poisoned by process contaminant, water, corrosives, or organo-metallics
- Fully Heated: The entire analyzer’s pneumatic assembly is heated which prevents condensation
