Emerson, a global manufacturing and technology company, has introduced a new continuous analyser to meet the expanding needs for accurate and cost-effective gas analysis and emissions monitoring systems.
The modular and scalable design of the RosemountTM CT5400 can incorporate up to six high-resolution laser modules and can detect, measure and monitor up to 12 critical components simultaneously.
The new device combines tunable diode laser (TDL) and quantum cascade laser (QCL) technologies in a single instrument, eliminating the need for multiple analysers, and it uses a patented ‘laser chirp’ to provide high-resolution spectroscopy which detects and identifies molecules in both the near and mid-infrared range of spectroscopic light.
Dr. Ruth Lindley, Product Manager for Emerson QCL analysers, explained, “By using the chirp methodology, the Rosemount laser-based gas analysers have a significantly quicker response time and make continuous measurements. Sub-second measurements give operators the ability to make adjustments to their processes and avoid costly upsets that can develop into emergencies.”
