Our GUIDED WAVE™ Multi-Purpose Heated Flow Cell is a heated version. The flow cell is drilled to accept a heating or cooling fluid. While the heat exchanged is not sufficient to significantly impact a rapidly flowing sample, it can be used to maintain the temperature of a preconditioned sample. Our 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.
Exceptional Light Transmission and Optical Performance
The GUIDED WAVE Multi-Purpose Heated Flow Cell provides exceptional optical performance. Typically, peak transmission exceeds 50%. That means more signal, lower measurement noise translating to lower limits of detection.
Process-Resistant Flow Cell Body Construction
The GUIDED WAVE Multi-Purpose Heated Flow Cell 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. Common materials, such as Viton, Kalrez®, EPDM, etc., are readily available. Please consult appropriate resources for temperature specifications of various O-ring materials and chemical compatibility with your process.Please consult appropriate resources for temperature specifications of various O-ring materials and chemical compatibility with your process.
