Liquid flow cell GUIDED WAVE™

UV-Vis

Our GUIDED WAVE™ Multi-Purpose Flow Cell (MPFC) is used whenever direct insertion probes are not appropriate and the process material does not require the added assurance of the High Safety Flow Cell. One of the primary advantages of near-infrared process spectroscopy is the utilization of intrinsically safe fiber optic cables to remotely locate the probe. While direct insertion probes eliminate sample loops and sample systems and their associated problems, sometimes it is necessary to install sample loops for safety, service, and/or sample conditioning reasons. The GUIDED WAVE Multi-Purpose Flow Cell (MPFC) is a convenient, compact, rugged sample interface that is easy to install and even easier to service. The cell’s sapphire windows can be cleaned by simply removing a clean-out plug for direct access to the windows without disconnecting process lines or fiber optic cables. A Simple, Serviceable Design Key elements of the GUIDED WAVE Multi-Purpose Flow Cell (MPFC) design are simple, serviceable O-ring seals, the clean-out port, high optical efficiency, slip jointed conduit-ready connections, sapphire windows, a clean flow pattern, and O-ring sealed optics to prevent ambient moisture infiltration. The probe can be field disassembled for O-ring service and reassembled without changing the optical pathlength, a crucial parameter for repeatable measurements. Process-Resistant Construction The GUIDED WAVE Multi-Purpose Flow Cell (MPFC) comes standard in 316L stainless steel but is available in many other alloys. Suitable O-ring materials must be specified to meet your process chemistry and safety requirements.
