Atmosphere Engineering’s SmartMeth control system is a fully automated nitrogen methanol mixing system for heat treating furnace atmosphere production. The SmartMeth utilises the latest in precision differential pressure flow measurement and touch screen controller design.
The system is the first with built-in flow rate calculation to automatically set the nitrogen and methanol flow rates based on a desired %CO furnace concentration. The SmartMeth comes completely pre-piped, wired and tested to perform to the exact furnace requirements.
Features & benefits
- Automatic Flow setpoint calculation:
SmartMeth automatically calculates the required nitrogen and methanol flow rates to maintain a desired %CO at the required volume. - Automatic Atmosphere Recovery:
SmarthMeth can provide additional synthetic gas flow on demand when introducing a new load into the furnace. - Paperless Chart Recorder:
An integrated full colour paperless chart recorder stores furnace temperature, %carbon, and synthetic gas flow furnace details. - Completely Assembled and Tested:
SmartMeth is a complete mixing and control system designed and tested to meet NFPA 86 safety guidelines.
