Switching to a Digital Analyzer Can Reduce Maintenance and Provide More Reliable Measurement

Digital Analyzers: 5 Benefits of Upgrading Your Process Analyzer to Digital
Digital Analyzers: 5 Benefits of Upgrading Your Process Analyzer to Digital

Digital process analyzers offer users significant benefits in signal reliability, maintenance management and sensor lifetime for analytical measurements in chemical and pharmaceutical processes. If you are using analog sensors that still function properly, the benefits of upgrading your pH analyzer, DO analyzer or other process analyzer to digital can provide significant additional value to your operation.

This guide, "5 Benefits of Upgrading Your Process Analyzer to Digital," details four case studies from companies that have implemented Intelligent Sensor Management® (ISM®) digital pH sensors and DO sensors into their production processes and reaped the benefits.

Included in this guide is an article on how Mitsubishi Chemical Company's replacement of analog process analyzers with analog pH sensors with ISM digital analyzers enabled them to shift to a predictive maintenance scheme.

Also included is an interview with a Reliability Engineer with Patheon on the benefits of ISM digital pH and dissolved oxygen sensors for recordkeeping and compliance.

Upgrading analog sensors to digital analyzers can dramatically improve reliability and reduce maintenance on your in-line pH measurements and in-line dissolved oxygen measurements.

Benefits of shifting from analog to digital analyzers include:

Easy Operability

Novice users will rapidly master transmitter operation with mini­mal training. Replace confusing menu trees and problematic di­als with a user-friendly, high visibility touchscreen or soft keys for easy operability.

Predictive Diagnostics

With ISM, you can see how long a sensor will last for and know in advance when it will need calibrated or replaced. This allows you to optimize your maintenance strategy and inventory management without compromising process consistency.

Highly Flexible

Place your transmitter wherever it is convenient and easily ac­cessible. Thanks to digital technology, sensor cable lengths up to 80 m (240 ft) eliminate the need for transmitter installation close to the actual measurement point.

Robust Build

Production environments and handling are tougher than the process itself. Transmitters with heavy-duty aluminum cast en­closure will withstand the harshest treatment.

Pairing the right transmitter with application-specific ISM sensors creates a digital analyzer that provides accurate measurement and reduces maintenance efforts. METTLER TOLEDO offers a wide range of transmitters that will meet your specific needs.
