Online Silica Analyzer

SWAN AMI Silitrace AC

Online Silica Analyzer for the complete monitoring system for the automatic, continuous measurement of silica in water steam cycles and high purity water.

SWAN Analytical Instruments’ model AMI Silitrace Silica Analyzer, is the optimal on-line solution for low-level silica analysis in the 0.5 to 1000 ppb (parts per billion) range.

The AMI Silitrace colorimetric analyzer performs continuous automatic testing of up to six water-steam cycle samples. Utilizing a unique reagent injection system with sample cell drainage (by siphon), moving parts are minimized for high reliability.

Automatic calibration and verification functions provide for accuracy and peace of mind and a built-in grab-sample function is available for ‘anytime’ manual sampling.

Other built-in functionality and features of the AMI Silitrace Silica Analyzer include:

Standard Single or dual-stream versions available or monitor up to 6-streams with sequencer
Molybdosilicate method with high precision temperature controlled photometer
Long life stable LED light source
Optimal chemistry does not precipitate or cause background absorbance
No system pressurization requirement
Automatic daily zero measurement
Monitors sample flow, reagent supply, reaction tubing and pump tubing integrity
Reagent saving mode
Peri-clip tubing system for fast and easy tubing maintenance
Complete system mounted on stainless steel panel

The Swiss-built SWAN AMI Silitrace Silica Analyzer, designed specifically for high purity water and steam sample analysis, is factory tested and ready for fast setup and many years of reliable operation.
