| General |
| The OPAL 100 series transmissometer systems are integrated emissions monitoring systems that provide continuous in-situ measurement of both visible (opacity %) and quantitative (mg/m3) emissions. They are ideal for use in package boiler, incinerator, and combustion process applications where EPA emission limits are applicable and precise combustion control is desired. OPAL 100 with optional oxygen sensor By incorporating the optional NOVATECH zirconia oxygen sensor, process combustion control can be optimised for improved results. The OPAL 100 provides dual channel output signals and alarm relays for both smoke density and oxygen levels. The total system is integrated into a single analyser control unit which represents significant savings in capital expenditure and installation costs. Continuous measurement of both stack opacity and dust levels Optional oxygen sensor as second channel output Reduce fuel costs and reduce emissions with a single investment Dual alphanumeric display with analogue and alarm outputs for opacity, dust and oxygen. Easy access to opacity transceiver and retro for lens cleaning and maintenance. Double pass, temperature stabilised, and stray light immune optical system. Long life modulated high power LED light source. Lens protection purge modules suitable for plant air or independent air blower system. Unique automatic or manual lens dirt compensation. |
