Inline reaction monitoring where only little space is available or under harsh conditions is an urgent matter, especially for R&D applications. The selection of precise analyzers for laboratory vessels, small process reactors and technical centers presents the user with a major challenge. SensoTech GmbH has designed the LiquiSonic Lab 3-in-1-sensor as a space-saving device that can withstand harsh and changing process conditions.

LiquiSonic provides an opportunity for complex polymerization or crystallization reactions monitoring, for instance, in down-scale reactors. Even harsh conditions like high temperature or pressure are successfully mastered. Process kinetics can be monitored inline and even under extreme process conditions in pressurized miniplants or pilot reactors. Space-saving design, separated sensor electronics and a user-friendly, multilingual controller with powerful data memory characterize the LiquiSonic system.
Installations up to 160° C and 16 bar can be designed with a system and well equipped for measurements in highly viscous suspensions. Special sensor materials like Hastelloy HC2000, tantalum or titanium protect against corrosion and promote long process life. All physical parameters and powerful diagnostic capabilities are logged 24/7 into the internal long-time memory.
