OCMA-305 Oil Content Monitor

Overview

The new HORIBA OCMA-305 oil content analyzer comes loaded with a welcome range of innovative features.
A Powerful built-in computer makes the new version a joy to use.
Just pour in an aqueous sample and solvent then push a single button. The OCMA-305 takes over and does everything for you - from extracting the oil components to measurement and drain. The whole process is fast, sure, super-accurate - and, of course, no more troublesome range-switching. Now anyone can make precision analyses without special training.
HORIBA has developed Type H-997 extraction solvent for use with the OCMA. The H-997 solvent can also be recycled by using HORIBA's optional Solvent Reclaimer.
The OCMA-305 is much more versatile, even simpler to use. HORIBA is proud to introduce to the world a truly user-friendly oil content analyzer.

Features

  • Built-in computer automates calibra-tion and measurement procedures.
    Once you have introduced the solvent and oily water sample to the unit, just push the START button. Everything is automated - from mixing and extracting the oil components to measurement and drain. Calibration is a snap. Just introduce de-ionized water in place of the oily water sample, and the OCMA-305 handles the automated process for you.
  • 0 - 200 mg/L dynamic range
    A pyro-electric sensor gives you a full dynamic range from 0 - 200 mg/L, with no need for range-switching. this makes the OCMA-305 perfect for fast, accurate measurements of all types of samples, from low to high concentration.
  • Short warm-up time
    Warms up in 20 minutes or less. This means you can get started three times faster than before.
  • Optical adjustment unnecessary
    The troublesome optical adjustments as-sociated with conventional pneumatic NDIR analyzers is no longer necessary.
  • Stable measurement readout
    The OCMA-305 determines automatically when the measured value has stabilized, and holds that value for you. This means you always get consistent, stable data readouts.
  • Self-diagnosis function
    The unit self-monitors for any possible problems, e.g., glitches during measure-ment; motor or sample-transfer malfunc-tions; deterioration of the light-source; or electrical problems. Should anything out of the ordinary occur, you can spot it right away by a quick check of the warning lamps and the linked on-screen error messages
