METPOINT®️ OCV compact - oil vapour measuring instrument
Integrated reference gas generation
The METPOINT OCV compact has been developed for measuring hydrocarbon vapours and gases in compressed air system applications. The detection levels are as low as one thousandth mg/m³ of residual oil vapour content and are executed continuously in ongoing operation. Shortened measuring intervals enable the rapid and reliable display of even the smallest deviations. This on-line monitoring process provides the certainty about the quality of your compressed air as an important element of your process safety at all times and at all quality-critical system points. The measurement data can be utilised for documenting the compressed air quality and for identifying contamination sources.
Function of oil vapour measuring
In the METPOINT®️ OCV compact system, a PID sensor works according to the principle of photo-ionization using a UV lamp. To increase the precision and to compensate for the smallest fluctuations, the determined values are temperature and pressure compensated. This fulfills the requirements of ISO 8573. As a continuous self-control of the measuring system, a reference gas generated by means of an integrated catalytic converter is used. In the periodic change between measuring air and reference air, the function of the PID measuring cell is continuously controlled and adjusted.
Internal reference gas generation by means of a purifierIntegrated reference gas generation
The METPOINT OCV compact has integrated reference gas treatment by means of a patented catalytic converter. The compressed air is hereby passed on to a heated catalytic converter surface and the hydrocarbons are decomposed catalytically to water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This reference gas is then continuously routed in alternation with the normal compressed air sample into the measuring chamber and the oil content is measured with the photo-ionisation detector (PID). The measuring chamber is both regularly “cleaned” by this reference gas generation and the measuring system is inspected for its zero point. This “self-monitoring” provides you with the assurance that the system is working accurately in the long term.
