PAMv2 PlusAutomatic Distillation testing+ Optical Dry Point Detectionby Orbis BV

About Optical Dry Point DetectionPAMv2 Plus Optical Dry Point Detection is the result of extensive research and development by Orbis BV specialists. Higher accuracy and better repeatability are obtained because of the sensor’s sensitivity and fixed position below the flask.As with existing dry point probes used in automatic distillation units, the optical dp sensor measures the temperature of the flask and detects a quick increase of heat when all liquid is evaporated. The sudden increase of heat indicates the occurence of dry point, at which point the corresponding vapor temperature is reported.

Problems with conventional dry point probes:• difficult to ensure probe positioning at the exact

bottom-center of the flask• probes are fragile and prone to breaking• inaccurate detection and bad repeatability due to

wrong probe positioning or probe insensitivity• higher operating costs higher investment

Software Application on iPadThe DistPad app for iPad functions as interface: it sends commands to - and receives test data from the instrument. The test runs independently on PAMv2’s internal microprocessor, and is not depedent on the (in)stability of a computer’s operation system.

Methods ASTM D86, D1078, D850, E123, IP195, DIN51751, ISO 3405, GOST 2177.User interface iPad with DistPad app software.Heating system Low mass/low voltage heater. Fast cooling when test is finished. Automatic shut-off in case of fire.Initial heat Auto-InHeat for first time/unknown samples. Smart program optimization for second time/future tests.Final heat Automatic & customizable.Condenser system Peltier cooled: no fluids, valves or moving parts involved. Fast cooling interactions.Temp. range 0 – 65 °C. Resolution 0.1°C.Volume detection Smart CCD camera for accurate volume measurement detects actual bottom of meniscus.

Resolution: 0.01 ml, accuracy: 0.01 ml, charge volume: 0- 103%. Automatic calibration on calibrated ring marks on receiver glass.Receiving chamber Peltier cooled: no fluids, valves or moving parts involved. Temp. range: 0 – 45 °C. Resolution 0.1°C.Residue Automatic or manual measurement.

Vapor temperature measurement

0 – 450 °C ASTM, 0 – 500 °C Absolute. PT-100 class A probe, automatic probe ID detection, calibration certificate standard supplied. True dynamic simulation of Mercury in-glass thermometer behavior (lag and stem correction).

Dry point measurement Optical Dry Point detection. Conventional dry point sensor probe available if desired.Pressure Automatic atmospheric pressure correction of test results.

System calibration against built-in pressure sensor. Range: 70 to 110 kPa, resolution 0,1 kPa.Safety UV sensor for fire detection. Built-in fire extinguisher requires nitrogen or CO2 supply from lab (connection hose is supplied).System health Automatic and fast system health check before every distillation run to ensure all components are in excellent state.Connectivity 1 x ethernet for connection to LIMS, Windows PC, FTP server, Kiosk printer and/or connection between multiple PAMV2 units.Dimensions Dimensions: 40cm x 40cm x 65cm (WxDxH), weight: 40 kg

PAMv2 Plus quick overview- Performance:Accurate & repeatable IBP/FBP/DP detection.Fast, on-the-fly heater control to maintain 4-5ml/m rate even with difficult samples.- Reliability:No fluids and almost no moving parts areused in PAMv2. This ensures reliablity and lowmaintenance on the entire instrument and thecondenser unit in particular.- Software:Depending on access rights, users either getbasic functions (“choose program/press start”)or access to all customization options. Test dataare available in PDF & XML. Windows/LIMSconnection is possible.- Safety:Flame detector, fire extinghuisher and auto-shutdown in case of fire.

Technical specifications: The app and its updates are always free
