Boilers and steam generators use hundreds of pipes to maximize efficient heat transfer for powering turbines. Phosphate treatment is often used to maintain high performance drum-type boilers, thus making it critical to implement a phosphate analyzer, while a silica analyzer is critical to ensure high quality steam exits the boiler. The 2850Si on-line silica analyzer combines the benefits of a silica meter and a phosphate analyzer. It delivers reliable ppb silica and ppm phosphate measurements, without the need of a separate PO4 analyzer, for optimized productivity.

Silica Analyzer for Water Monitoring: The 2850Si
Optimize Productivity with Integrated Phosphate Monitoring

Ensure Water Purity with On-line Silica Monitoring
On-line silica analyzers provide a critical measurement for ensuring water purity in power cycle chemistry and in ultrapure water monitoring. The 2850Si analyzer for silica helps optimize ion exchange production and minimize silica deposition on turbines. This on-line silica meter allows you to measure at sub-ppb levels for early detection of silica breakthrough of polisher anion resin, so that contaminated water can be diverted before it reaches critical areas.

Less Downtime Required for Analyzer Maintenance
Analyzers for silica play an important role in water quality assurance and the protection of plant equipment from silica build-up. Ensuring analyzer uptime requires a silica meter with intelligent diagnostics to eliminate the inconvenience and costs associated with unexpected maintenance. The 2850Si silica analyzer with integrated phosphate analyzer tracks reagent usage and tube/filter replacement status, allowing you to plan for maintenance to maximize uptime. Gain even greater uptime assurance with added IP55 enclosure protection of the standard IP66 rated electronic components.

Meeting Flexible Operation Needs of Tomorrow
Maximize valuable panel space with a silica analyzer that supports multiple streams in a single, compact footprint. This gives you more opportunities to install other critical analytics. The 2850Si silica analyzer delivers greater measurement speed with proactive temperature compensation. The addition of an integrated PO4 analyzer provides phosphate monitoring, offering the flexibility to operate based on plant needs instead of analyzer constraints. The versatility of this 3-in-1 silica meter allows you to optimize water chemistry at reduced operating costs.
