Key Features & Benefits
Revolutionizing Single-Point Analysis Mindsets
No Sampling System Required
Traditional analyzers often depend on costly and complex sampling systems, which introduce challenges like contamination risks, high maintenance costs, and process delays. The HORIBA PI-200-SP eliminates these concerns, offering direct measurements with more relaxed sampling requirements for smoother, more efficient analysis.
Seamless Integration
The PI-200-SP integrates effortlessly with your existing infrastructure, whether you're modernizing legacy systems or expanding capabilities. Its flexible design accommodates various installation configurations and communication protocols, making it adaptable to diverse industrial environments and control systems.
Expandable Architecture
Start with single-point sampling and scale as needed. The PI-200-SP can be upgraded and expanded to 8 channels using our optional Fiber Multiplexer, allowing you to monitor multiple process points with a single analyzer, dramatically reducing equipment footprint and cost per measurement. Our multi-channel process Raman analyzer can also monitor up to 17 different sampling points across multiple process streams
Stream Switching Capability
The PI-200-SP also has the capability of being used in stream switching applications, allowing a single measurement point to be used for multiple process streams, maximizing your analytical investment.
