MODEL HONE DISTILLAR - 4102 DISTILLATION ANALYSER
Part No: ATAC4102
 
The microprocessor controlled Model 4102 Distillar is completely automatic process steam analyser for the measurement of any distillation point or point which can be determined by the laboratory method. The analysis is performed on-line in correlation with ASTM D86/IP123

descriptions
The Distillar is certified to ATEX standards and provides extensive facilities for user configuration via the RS232 input and remote standards PC/AT

The analyser comprises three closed coupled cabinets. The top left enclosure houses the pneumatic valves for the inlet burette and flask as well as the burette itself. The right hand unit contains all the electrical and electronic components. The main cabinet contains the flask box, condenser, receiver, remaining, pneumatic valves and purge controller.

The purge controller ensures protection type 'P" requirements are met within the flask and electronics box. The electronic and pneumatic components enable complete automatic and safe operation within hazardous area
 
 
principles of operation
The analyser in general copies the standard laboratory test ASTM D86/IP 123. The close similarity between the analyser operation and the laboratory tests ensure and excellent agreement at all points for all products. A typical analysis is described below.

Fresh sample is flushed through the analyser to cool all wetted parts to at least 20 deg C below the IBP of the product being analysed. The burette is allowed to fill with sample then settle at a volume of 100ml

The 100ml sample is drained into the precooled flask. The flask is heated electrically until the analysis is complete.

During the heating period the power to the flask heater is controlled to ensure optimum rate of recovery as defined by ASTM for the product sampled. The vapour travels up the neck of the flask and flows into a water cooled condenser. The vapour temperature is measured in the neck of the flask by a temperature sensor.

The distillate after passing through the water cooled condenser is collected in a receiver. Percentage recovered is measured by means of an an optical detector. The recovery level and vapour temperature are monitored and compared with preset analysis points.

The test cycle will end when all the nominated analysis points have been found. Results are output on the the 4-20ma process signals.
