OHC-800 Explosion-proof Calorimeter

OHC-800 Explosion-proof Calorimeter from Riken

Features

  • Unique measuring principle,”Opt-Sonic calculation” is applied
  • This can minimise the interference effects caused by interference gases, and a high-accuracy measuring result can be obtained
  • Fast response time T90 reaction within 5 seconds
  • High repeatability +/- 0.02MJ/m3
  • Wide operation temperature -20 ~ +57 degree C
  • Explosion-Proof structure even for Hydrogen Exd IIB
  • High ingress protection level IP66 / IP67
  • Remarkable temperature characteristic
  • Below 0.10MJ/m3 fluctuation for the temperature change in a day (< 20 degree C)
  • Easy to switch the display among “Calorific value”, “Density” and “WOBBE index” just by the button operation

Applications

  • Electric Power Energy
  • Gas Energy
  • Gas Engine for Ship
  • Biogas
  • Iron Steel
  • Refinery

Explosion-proof Calorimeter OHC-800 Overview

The OHC-800 is an all-in-one explosion-proof calorimeter which features high accuracy, continuous measurement and high-speed response.

“Opt-Sonic calculation” is performed using the optical and sonic sensors. “Opt-Sonic calculation” is based on combining 2 measurement results obtained by the 2 sensors. This can minimise the effects of interference gases on the reading and enable high-accuracy, reliable measurement. (* Opt-Sonic is a term coined by RIKEN KEIKI to describe Optical and Sonic sensors)

  • Easy to switch the display among “Calorific value”, “Density” and “WOBBE index”
    The displayed unit is easily switched by pressing the button. Laborious calculation is not needed.
  • Fulfilling self-diagnosis function and running cost. The self-diagnosis function, including fault diagnostics, prevents the calorimeter from becoming unable to measure the gas. Few consumables are needed, and this saves on running costs.
  • Designed to be installed in a wide variety of locations.
    Structure is robust with Explosion-Proof (Exd IIB+H2 T4) and high ingress protection level (IP66 / IP67) Both 100VAC~240VAC and 24VDC power supply can be supplied.
