Vaisala K-PATENTS Refinery Process Refractometer PR-23-RP combines advanced CCD-camera technology with a rugged steel sensor probe. The probe is a non-weld sensor body model for large pipe and vessel installations. Designed for demanding process conditions, high temperatures, pressure and vibration.

Special wetted parts materials are available for harsh environments and aggressive process fluids.

Process Refractometer PR-23-RP is installed in the main processing line, bypass line or vessel either directly by welding stud, or via a 1 inch, 2 inch or 3 inch cross flow cell

PR-23-RP includes an Ethernet based communications solution which allows connection to computer networks and to the Internet. Real-time measurement data and diagnostic information may be obtained through this interface, and this makes it also a valuable service tool for parameter changes and software updates.

The refractometer has no lamps or moving parts requiring regular maintenance or recalibration. Users can simply 'install-and-forget', getting a low total cost of ownership.

The refinery instrument models range from compact probe models for small pipeline and bypass lines to rugged heavy-duty long probe versions for large pipe line, vessel and reactor installations.

When standard models are not sufficient to fulfill requirements, please consult the factory for engineered solutions, e.g. special wetted materials or custom mounting accessories and process connections.
