BT-Online1

Driven by Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and integrated with different control platforms and protocols, the BT-Online1 provides real-time particle size measurement results for dry process lines 24/7. Optional feedback control can be therefore carried out. With the automatic alignment system, uninterruptible power supply (UPS), and abnormal pressure protection, the BT-Online1 possesses strong environmental adaptability, offering monitoring of the process line with minimal manual intervention.

Features and Benefits

  • Representative sampling
  • Dual protection from contamination
  • Monitoring of up to 4 process lines
  • Automatic alignment
  • Intuitive software
  • Multiple communication protocols

Overview

BT-Online1—Online Measurement for Dry Powder

The BT-Online1 is used as an online particle size analyzer for dry particles within the size range of 0.1 to 1000 μm. The BT-Online1 is integrated into a process loop, providing real-time measurement results that assist in quality inspection and parameter monitoring.

Dual protection from contamination 

The lenses of the BT-Online1 are protected using a dual air curtain and sheath gas, which greatly reduce maintenance costs, increase efficiency, and prevent costly downtime.

 

1. Dual air curtain

  • Protection of lenses from contamination based on the two generated positive pressure zones
  • Assistance in sample dispersion

2. Sheath gas

  • Hydrodynamic focusing of the sample jet ensures the correct flowing path for the particles
  • Protection of lenses from pollution using an annular curtain
