BTG's TCT-2531 is an open flow through sensor
designed to measure total consistency in open
channel applications or in a pressurized line.
It measures the total solids using the peak-method
and can because of that deliver an accurate total
consistency value independently of variation in fiber,
fines or ash.
The pulp brightness or color does not affect the
measurement.
The system is installed at the outlet of an immersion
pump (supplied by the customer) according to fig 2
on page 2, or directly on a pressurized pipe
(minimum 1.5 bar [22 psi]).
The sensor is completely open and two small fiber
optics are located on one side of the sensor. The
fibers are placed in a stainless steel frame that
protects and holds it in place.
The single-point measurement system allows
flexibility of installation and simple handling of the
instrument.
The sensor electronics employs modern
microprocessor technology with advanced signal
analysis.
It is operated using BTG’s CPM (communication
platform), which ensures compatibility with present
and future communication interface requirements,
from analogue output with HART® to field buses.
As part of the new generation of easier smaller,
smarter and lighter BTG instruments, the TCT-2531
is designed to help you rapidly optimize the paper
making process, for significant cost and productivity
improvements.
