Analyzer Capability in a Transmitter Package - GE-Sensing offers the intrinsically safe HygroPro(TM) Moisture Transmitter.BILLERICA, Mass. -- Both a moisture analyzer and a transmitter, the multitasking multitasking Mode of computer operation in which the computer works on multiple tasks at the same time. A task is a computer program (or part of a program) that can be run as a separate entity. HygroPro[TM] from GE-Sensing combines the high performance and practical features commonly found in top-of-the-line moisture analyzers in a compact, intrinsically safe Intrinsically safe is an attribute applied to electrical equipment that is designated for use in explosion-prone areas. In normal uses, electrical equipment often creates internal tiny sparks in switches, motor brushes, connectors, and in other places. , loop-powered device for applications in the process, industrial, and pharmaceutical markets. By integrating moisture, temperature, and pressure sensors on a single probe, the HygroPro[TM] reduces the overall installation cost by minimizing the number of sensors, and significantly reducing installation points and cabling needs. "We have brought the best experiences of the Panametrics and General Eastern product lines together to provide a more comprehensive solution to moisture monitoring in the HygroPro[TM] product," says John Kerney, product line manager for GE Sensing GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies is an affiliate business of General Electric specializing in the design and manufacture of sensing elements, devices, instruments, and systems that enable customers to monitor, protect, control, and validate the safety of their critical . "This device provides our customers with the capabilities that they have commonly found in our high-end moisture analyzers in a compact, simple, easy-to-use transmitter package that can be applied in both gas and liquid applications. With the intrinsically safe certification, customers can utilize the HygroPro[TM] in hazardous areas without the need for cumbersome and expensive explosionproof enclosures." HygroPro[TM] 's Bafeesa and FM (pending) certified intrinsically safe design in an IP67/Type 4X housing, is ideal for measuring the moisture content in pipeline natural gas, petrochemical applications, power generation, such as transformer oil Transformer oil is usually a highly-refined mineral oil that is stable at high temperatures and has excellent electrical insulating properties. It is used in oil-filled transformers, some types of high voltage capacitors, fluorescent lamp ballasts, and some types of high voltage or sulfur hexafluoride Noun 1. sulfur hexafluoride - a colorless gas that is soluble in alcohol and ether; a powerful greenhouse gas widely used in the electrical utility industry sulphur hexafluoride fluoride - a salt of hydrofluoric acid (SF6) and other industrial gas or non-aqueous liquid applications. The HygroPro[TM] features an integrated backlit An LCD screen that has its own light source from the back of the screen, making the background brighter and characters appear sharper. display and six-button keypad to allow viewing of up to three parameters simultaneously and easy navigation of the software. Using GE-Sensing's industry-proven aluminum oxide aluminum oxide: see alumina. moisture sensor in conjunction with a built-in temperature thermistor Thermistor An electrical resistor with a relatively large negative temperature coefficient of resistance. Thermistors are useful for measuring temperature and gas flow or wind velocity. and pressure transducer Pressure transducer An instrument component which detects a fluid pressure and produces an electrical, mechanical, or pneumatic signal related to the pressure. , the HygroPro[TM] provides real-time measurement of dew point and calculated parameters such as ppmv in gases, ppmw in liquids, or pounds per million standard cubic feet in natural gas. Since the display can be oriented in four possible configurations, viewing of the information is simple whether the transmitter is mounted in the top, bottom, or beside a process pipe. The HygroPro[TM] combines the technologically advanced aluminum oxide moisture sensor with state-of-the-art software and electronics in a package designed specifically for installations where space is at a premium.
