Dew Point Transmitter
The Novatech 1738 Transmitter detects changes in the Dew Point in annealing furnaces. This allows operators to take corrective action to prevent expensive re-work due to oxidation of the product. The dew point is calculated from the amount of oxygen measured in the furnace. The unique sensor manufactured by Novatech uses a catalyst that attracts oxygen molecules in the same way as the surface of the steel inside the furnace.
The analyser is easy-to-operate, reliable and maintenace free. Furthermore it is accurate for continuous monitoring of oxygen in hydrogen/nitrogen atmospheres used in annealing furnaces. The unique dual sensor prevents costly shutdowns on sensor failures.
