PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The monitor measures particulates in the sample stream on a continuous basis by passing the process fluid through a proprietary photo optical measuring cell developed by Rivertrace.
Using a combination of optical recognition algorithms and light intensity it is possible to differentiate between Oil particles, Gas/Air Bubbles and Solid particulates in the range 1-500 microns. Flow and particulate characteristics can be visualised live via the 7” display.
Oil concentration, pressure, temperature and oil alarm status are displayed on an HD touchscreen. Oil concentrations, alarms and fault log are stored within the system to comply with the reporting requirements of IMO resolution MEPC.107(49) and can be downloaded onto a pc via LAN or USB for further analysis.
The SMART PFM 107 offers a choice of auto cleaning methods to ensure the accuracy is maintained at all times. The cleaning is fully automatic and operates whenever it senses contamination of the optical windows.
