6. Tungsten Lamp

Sensor Models: AF16-EX-F    AF56-F    AF16-F   
How it Works:

Light from a Tungsten lamp (6) is precisely defined by the optics module (5), passes through a window (2), and then through the process stream (1). The resulting light passes through a VIS filter (3) and is detected by a photodiode (4).

The resulting photocurrent is precisely amplified, converted, and analyzed by the converter. The converter provides real time measurements and can send outputs to the process control system.
