Trace Moisture Analysers
Panametrics’ moisture.IQ
Applications
This multichannel analyzer measures moisture in gases
and non-aqueous liquids and oxygen (optional) in gases.
Designed for permanent installations, it is used in conjunction
with Panametrics Moisture Image Series and M Series
moisture probes for industries and applications including:
• Petrochemical
• Natural gas
• Industrial gas
• Semiconductor
• Furnace gas/heat treating
• Power generation
• Air dryer
• Pharmaceutical
• Aerospace
Features
• Up to 6 channels of moisture measurement
• Each channel can include optional pressure, temperature,
oxygen, and other analog inputs
• Calibrations traceable to national standards
• Rack, bench, and panel, weatherproof and explosion-proof
configurations available
• Computer-enhanced response software for abrupt
dry-down applications
• Real time touch screen display of six or twelve parameters
simultaneously
• Displays trace measurements in the most common
moisture measurement units
• Built-in data logging
• USB port for data handling and instrument program
updates
• Data communications: Modbus, RS232/485
• File Transfer and remote display connection via Ethernet
• Analog outputs include recorder outputs and
measurement relays
• Fault condition alarm relay
• Built in Henry’s Law constants database for liquid
applications
Multifunction
The moisture.IQ is the multichannel, multifunction flagship
model in the IQ Series of Panametrics aluminum oxide-based
moisture analyzers. The moisture.IQ measures trace moisture,
pressure and temperature in non-aqueous liquids and gases.
It accepts inputs from electrochemical sensors for measuring
oxygen concentrations in gases. The auxiliary inputs can
accept analog inputs from any transmitter with 0/4 to 20
mA or -1 to +4 V output, including a variety of Panametrics
process control instruments, this feature makes the moisture.
IQ a true multifunction analyzer, providing cost savings
through system integration.
Multichannel
For additional cost savings, the moisture.IQ is available with
two module bays. Each can accept a 1-channel or 3-channel
module. With up to six sets of sensors coming to one set of
electronics, customers can significantly reduce their cost per
measurement point.
Touch screen display
Designed with an industrial touch screen display, the
graphical user interface is intuitive enough to negate the
need for a user’s manual (although one is provided)! Six or
twelve measurements can be displayed at one time. Multiple
display pages can be set up for easy scrolling. Color coded
status gives you fault alarm information at a glance.
Moisture image series probe
The moisture.IQ can accept inputs from the Panametrics
MIS probes and the M Series probes that were available for
the Moisture Image Series 1 and Moisture Monitor Series 3
analyzers. The MIS probes (MISP and MISP2) provide integral
moisture, temperature, and pressure inputs. The calibration
data for these sensors is stored digitally. Upon connection
to the analyzer, the calibration data is downloaded to
the moisture.IQ.
