Metal Samples’ MS2801L CorrTran MV transmitter
measures general corrosion, localized corrosion (pitting), and conductance, and transmits that information to operators via RS-485 Modbus protocol in real time.
The CorrTran MV utilizes state-of-the-art algorithms and data analysis techniques to accurately measure general corrosion rate and pitting. Harmonic distortion analysis (HDA) is applied to improve the performance of the
industry-accepted linear polarization resistance (LPR) technique used to measure corrosion rate.
To further enhance the performance, an application specific
Stern-Geary variable (B value) is calculated and updated every measuring cycle. There is no need to manually update the B value because of process changes. During the measurement cycle, CorrTran MV also performs an automated electrochemical noise (ECN) measurement, which in combination with the corrosion rate data can provide a measurement of localized corrosion (pitting).
The CorrTran MV works with Metal Samples three-electrode CorrTran style probes and electrodes. Probes are available in a variety of mounting types and materials
to suit almost any type of installation. |
