MODEL 7613 - COLOUR ANALYSER
Part No: ATAC7613
 
The model 7613 colour analyser / monitor is completely automatic process steam instrument measuring colour ranges in the ASTM D156, D1209 or D1500 ranges
 
 
typical applications
Fuel monitoring - transportation fuels may be coloured in order to facilitate their correct allocation. Mistakes such as putting the wrong fuel into a tank, can be avoided
Dying of gas oil -the same fuel can be taxed by governements at differeent levels depending their application so different coloured dyes are used to distinguish them
Online blending - the 7613 can be sued to check the colour of a product during blending
Interface detection - liquids of very similar density alternatley using a common pipeline can be identified and directed to the correct storage tank
Oil heat exhanger breakthrough
 
 
principles of operation
The colour monitor responds to color changhes by measuring the differential light absoprtion at two wavelengths and the ratio of these absorptions.

A source of filtered light from tungsten lamp is modulated by a mechanical chopper which has two coloured filters. One filter (reference is chosen so that the light beam produced is minimally absorbed regardless of colour changes in the sample. The other filter (measurement) is chosen so that the light beam produced is appreciably absorbed as the sample colour changes (eg oil wil absorb blue light quite strongly as oil becomes more yellow).

the emergent light is passed via the sample cell onto the photocell.

The rotation of the chopper is coordinated so that alternative outputs from the photocell (reference - measurement) may be amplified, individually stored and then compare to each other.

If the comparison shows the sample is more than predetermined amount darker than selected, the alarm operates. Alternatively by means of links in the printed circuit card, the alarm can operate where the sample is lighter than selected. the external control is a self re-setting twist to set facility which enables the light beams to be unbalanced in the order to test the system.
