Maxtec Handi+ N₂: maintenance-free nitrogen analyser for industry and automotive
The Handi+ N₂ is specially developed for applications where nitrogen percentage must be measured quickly and easily, without maintenance or sensor replacement being desirable or practical. The analyser is designed as a maintenance-free disposable product: at the end of the sensor life, the entire analyser is replaced. This eliminates maintenance time, calibration problems due to ageing sensors and the costs and logistics of sensor replacement programmes.
The expected sensor life is more than 900.000 O₂% hours, corresponding to at least 2 years in typical applications. After that, the entire analyser is replaced. The splash-proof design also makes the analyser suitable for use in wetter working environments such as garages and tyre service points.
Applications
The Handi+ N₂ is ideally suited for garages, tyre service points and automotive OEMs that offer nitrogen tyre inflation and want to verify nitrogen purity periodically. The analyser is also suitable for verifying nitrogen purity on gas deliveries, monitoring nitrogen inerting processes in the food and pharmaceutical industry and quality control of nitrogen mixtures in production environments.
Maintenance-free design
The big advantage of the Handi+ N₂ over analysers with replaceable sensors is the complete absence of maintenance. There are no sensors to order, store or replace. Er is geen servicecontract nodig. The analyser works from day one until the end of the sensor life without intervention, after which it is replaced as a whole. The expected sensor life of more than 900.000 O₂% hours guarantees at least 2 years of reliable operation in typical applications.
