Protecting against icing in low temperature/high
humidity environments is vital to prolong the life and efficiency of a gas
turbine. A new generation of the Optidew Hygrometers from Michell Instruments
has been designed specifically for anti-icing systems in these
applications.
The Optidew chilled-mirror principle provides a
repeatable, drift-free dew point measurement with a wide dynamic range from
-50°C to +90°C dew point over -10°C to +90°C. The rugged design
offers minimal maintenance while retaining the performance and sensitivity of a
high-level laboratory reference hygrometer. Compared to a traditional polymer
RH probe, the Optidew offers far better accuracy and stability. Protection
against contamination of the chilled mirror is provided by Michells state of
the art Dynamic Contamination Correction (DCC) System.
Two 4-20 mA output signals are configurable through the
instrument s interfacing software for dew point and temperature or RH and
temperature. The RS232 provides custom data logging with Windows-based
configuration software.
