OL-55 On-Line Tensiometer

By continuously measuring surface tension, the OL-55 monitors the level of surface active chemical additives in water-based process liquids. Based on the information from the measurement the operator can either manually dose chemicals into the process or the optional auto-dosing system can be used.


On-line tensiometer

  • Continuous monitoring of surface tension and other parameters, including pH, temperature, and conductivity, in various process liquids for optimising the dosing of chemicals
  • Rugged design for factory applications
  • Fully automatic computer controlled operation
  • Patented technology

Benefits

  • Eliminates overdosing of surfactants - reducing costs
  • Controls processes - improves efficiency and quality
  • Reduces waste and improves yield
  • Improves environmental control
  • Extends chemical lifetime in processes
