Flange-Mounted NIR Liquid Process Flow Cell

Type B Series ProcellTM Vortex Flow Cells | Liquid Transmission Cell for UV-Vis and NIR

Specac ProCell™ Vortex Process Cells are a range of robust flange-mounted liquid transmission cells for in-situ monitoring of industrial process streams by UV/Vis and NIR optical spectroscopy via the use of optical fibers.

The cell is easily trace-heated and insulated for use at elevated temperatures, and cleaning ports can be added to facilitate in-situ cleaning of the windows. A propriety design of leak detection port can be added to give a timely indication of seal degradation.

Specac process cells have been designed more than 25 years ago using input from leading experts in the field of process analysis and have since proven to withstand even the harshest process conditions, including highly corrosive and acidic chemicals at high pressures and temperatures. Cells can be serviced at regular intervals for the extra peace of mind, long term planning to coincide with plant turnarounds is advised.

Process plant or Short by-pass loop NIR cell

ProCell™ Vortex Process Cells are designed to be installed either directly on a process plant or in a short by-pass loop. To ensure ease of process integration, the cell can be configured from a wide range of ANSI and DIN flange sizes. The cell is easily trace-heated and insulated for use at elevated temperatures, and cleaning ports can be added to facilitate in-situ cleaning of the windows. A propriety design of leak detection port can be added to give a timely indication of seal derogation.

These liquid transmission flow cells can operate at temperatures as high as 300°C (280°C as standard) and at pressures up to 1500 psi. A choice of body materials (including Stainless Steel 316L and Hastelloy® C276) and a range of window seal options (including perfluoroelastomer seals) are available to ensure appropriate material compatibility for the application. To ensure optimum UV/Vis or NIR spectroscopic absorption features for analysis, optical transmission pathlengths are available from 1.0 to 10 mm. Optical fiber connectivity is ensured by industry standard SMA 905 connectors.
