The Procal 5000
continuous emission monitoring analyser is
designed for in stack analysis of gas phase
stack emission components. Utilising absorption
spectroscopy the instrument stores and analyses
a full UV spectrum and using advanced
mathematical techniques calculates the emission
concentrations. The Procal 5000 system is a
fully integrated stack gas analyser with built
in auto zero/calibration facilities. The
instrument will report concentrations of stack
gas pollutants either through the Procal
Analytics Analyser control Unit (ACU) or
Personal Computer (PC) running Procal Analytics
Analyser Control Windows (ACW) software.
An-in stack heater (ISH) is optionally supplied
when process conditions are liable to result in
water vapour condensing in the analyser sample
cell. The on stack analyser consists of two main
parts:
The main instrument housing, which is
manufactured from cast aluminium and rated to
IP65 \ NEMA 4X. This custom designed housing has
many benefits including two separate
compartments, ribbed cooling fins to allow good
heat dissipation and hinged covers for easy
maintenance. The main upper compartment houses
the optical components consisting of an ultra
violet source and Procal designed and
manufactured robust diode array spectrometer. In
a second compartment with separate access a
mains power supply, microprocessor and auto zero
\ calibration module are located.Procal
Analytics unique in-situ sample cell with its
auto/zero calibration capability is attached to
the aluminium housing. The use of the advanced
in-situ sample cell thereby avoids the need to
extract a sample from the stack. Thus, the use
of costly high maintenance sample handling
systems is eliminated.
Sintered
stainless steel filter panels fitted to the
sides of the in-stack measuring cell allows the
permeation of stack gas whilst preventing the
ingress of dust and particulates. The envelope
thus formed allows the introduction of zero and
span gas enabling the system to be fully
verified on stack. Complies with US EPA 40 CFR
part 60 and 75. The Analyser Control Unit (ACU),
or a PC running Procal analyser control software
for Windows displays gas concentrations of each
of the monitored components along with
information on sample condition diagnostic data
and trends. The information can be retransmitted
in the form of 4 - 20mA current outputs (one per
measured component), parallel printer output and
optional RS232C serial output. The ACU or PC can
support up to four optical head units of any
Procal analyser type. Analyser control unit

software for PC (ACW) data sheet 7-3023The
analyser controls an integral auto zero unit. On
command the unit will check and if necessary
adjust zero by introducing instrument air into
the probe thereby forcing out sample gas and
establishing a true zero. If required the unit
can then introduce a known concentration of test
gas into the sample cell thereby establishing
the calibration point, if required the unit will
then auto calibrate. In the event of power loss
to the analyser or too low sample temperature
the integral auto zero unit will purge the
sample cell with air. This is done to prevent
highly corrosive condensates forming in the
sample cell. If the analyser is to operate in a
stack or duct near or below dew point an
optional in-stack heater is fitted: The
temperature of this unit is controlled by an
output
