An online analyzer system is a complete, ready-to-operate measuring installation: one or more process analyzers with their sample conditioning, housed in an analyzer shelter or cabinet with utilities and connected to the plant’s control system. Akan Industrial and Automation delivers online analyzer systems turnkey – analyzer selection, sample system design, shelter design and fabrication, DCS integration, FAT, SAT and commissioning. The systems use technology such as APIX Analytics micro gas chromatographs and PAI liquid analyzers.
