Portable meter with ATEX approval

December 2013 Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring

Knick’s Portavo 904 (X) line of portable meters for pH values, conductivity and oxygen feature an ATEX approval for zones 0 and 1, thereby allowing users to monitor process measuring points in hazardous areas. They support digital Memosens sensors as well as analogue pH and conductivity sensors. Portavo meters meet the requirements of on-site and laboratory operation. The housings are made from a high-tensile polymer and thanks to IP66/IP67 protection they are suitable for use in rugged industrial environments. The integrated protective cover protects the display from damages and also serves as benchtop stand. Additionally, the housings feature an integrated quiver that prevents the sensor from drying out. The new MemoLog function saves the calibration data of all Memosens measuring points and makes them available for the analysis of the sensor parameters. Data can be easily transferred to a PC via the integrated USB interface. The Paraly SW 112 software, which is included in delivery, allows users to store, display, document, print, and process measured values, calibration protocols and calibration data.

Keeping an eye on invisible radiation
Omniflex Remote Monitoring Specialists Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
At its peak in 1994, the energy generation capacity of the UK’s nuclear power stations was 12,7 GW across 16 plants. In 2024, the capacity has fallen to around 5 GW, and the number of stations is down to nine. However, this is far from the end of the story as spent nuclear fuel remains radioactive for centuries, and requires rigorous safety processes to safeguard against leaks.
