ABB’s FTPA2000 is a multi-point, Fourier Transform Near Infrared (FTNIR) analyzer. It is designed for remote, real-time monitoring of continuous and batch processes in liquid and solid phase, providing important information for process optimization. Permanently aligned, ABB’s FTNIR will require almost no maintenance. 

Flexible siting and increased security

The FTPA2000’s flexibility allows for installation in any general purpose environment and can be remotely connected to the process through optical fiber cables: each sampling point can be located up to several hundred meters away from the analyzer.

Flexible sampling: connecting to versatility

The FTPA2000 can be connected to a wide range of optional accessories.  It is compatible with most popular probes and flow-through cells offered by ABB and third-party suppliers. The sampling accessory can be selected specifically according to the properties of the sample being analyzed and can differ from one stream to another. In fact, a different sampling system, spectral range and analytical method can be applied to each monitoring point. 

Flexible multi-detector module

The FTPA2000 includes a unique eight-channel multi-detector module. The detector for each monitoring point can be selected from different types of detectors available. Signals from the detector module multiplexed electronically and use no moving parts. This translates into better analysis repeatability than with an optomechanical multiplexer before and after– stream switching.
