Promet EExd

 Process Moisture Analyzer
For the last thirty years, Michell Instruments has provided on-line moisture measurement solutions for the natural gas and petrochemical industries. All of that experience and expertise is encapsulated in Promet EExd, where the highest priorities have been given to the needs of the customer in terms of simplicity of installation, total plant communications integration, moderate cost of ownership and highest calibration integrity.

Promet EExd is certified as flameproof for use in IEC Zone 1 and 2/NEC Class 1 Div1. Promet EExd offers single and dual channel moisture measurement, with integrated electronic pressure reading, within a single field-installed flameproof housing. User interface is provided through the bright vacuum fluorescent display and touch screen controls.

Comprehensive Sampling Systems of state-of-the-art design, with best practice sample filtration, pressure reduction and flow control, and a range of options are available to fulfil user-specific installation and application requirements.
