The unit’s optical system incorporates long lifetime components and is designed for high light throughput and increased reliability. Its self-aligning design reduces maintenance significantly. The compact system has no filter wheel, no optical filters to replace and no optical couplings to align. Its light source – a Xenon lamp – has a 2+year life expectancy.

The IPS-4 possesses among other features a host of self-diagnostic and predictive maintenance capabilities. The unit is equipped with numerous analog (4-20 mA) and digital communications capabilities, including RS232, RS485 with Modbus RTU protocol and a built-in Fast Ethernet port. A built-in web-based user interface enables connectivity and communication via a company Ethernet system. The IPS-4 features a rugged stainless steel 22-key keypad and a four-line vacuum fluorescent display that can be menu selected for a range of different international languages.

Designed to Handle Environmental Challanges

The IPS-

4 is designed to handle most environmental challenges without additional protection or expensive shelters. The unit is supplied in an IP65 enclosure that exceeds the requirements of NEMA4 and is able to handle even wash-down environments without allowing water or dust to ingress. While a painted steel chassis comes standard, a stainless steel version also is available.

Outdoors, the IPS-4 tolerates ambient temperatures from –20o to 50oC (-4o to 122oF) without external heating/cooling. Indoors, the analyzer is designed to take up minimal space. Its width has been kept to 95 cm (less than 38 inches).

The IPS-4 is engineered to be a fully integrated, turnkey solution that Ametek will customize to specific end user requirements. Custom features include automatic zero and span, fluid injection, corrosion-resistant materials, filtration, pumps or eductors, and heated sample lines.
