Function
The measuring principle of the ULTRAMAT 6 gas analyzer operates on the
specific absorption of molecules in the middle infrared range(2 – 10 µm) and
is used to measure the concentration of ir active gases.
Special characteristics
- Four freely-programmable measuring ranges per component, also with
suppressed zero
- All measuring ranges are inear!
- The isolated analog output is set to 4 to 20 mA (NAMUR)
For safety instrumented systems the relay output is used for diagnostics only.
