Single Channel Absorption Probe

Single Channel Absorption (Visible Light) Sensor Schematic
1. Optical Path Length (OPL)
2. Sapphire Windows
3. Optics Module
4. Filter
5. Tungsten Lamp
6. Photo Diode

Sensor Models: AS16-F    AS16-BT-F    AS56-F   
How it Works:

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

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.
