Model 973S

Integrated Chilled Mirror Hygrometer

For Continuous Dew/Frost Point in Air and Other Gases

Our MBW CALIBRATION™ MODEL 973S™ Dew Point Chilled Mirror Analyzer with integrated sample pump, external temperature measurement and transport case. For many years this was the standard version, hence the MODEL 973S designation. As a transfer standard, it remains a popular option thanks the high stability of the integrated measuring head, integrated 0.1% pressure sensor, and high precision temperature measurement to enable calculation of relative humidity.

The MODEL 973S Dew Point Chilled Mirror Analyzer is a portable instrument designed for the measurement of dew point in a variety of gases. It is commonly used in industries where the moisture content of gases is critical to the production process or end-use application.

INDUSTRIES

Some of the industries that use the MODEL 973S™ Dew Point Chilled Mirror Analyzer include:

  • Power generation: Used in power plants to measure the moisture content of gases, such as hydrogen and nitrogen, which are used for cooling and insulation purposes.
  • Semiconductor manufacturing: The semiconductor manufacturing process requires ultra-dry gases to prevent contamination of the products being produced. It is used to measure the moisture content of these gases, such as nitrogen and argon.
  • Petrochemical industry: Moisture content in gases used in the petrochemical industry can cause corrosion, contamination, and decreased efficiency in equipment. It is used to measure the moisture content of gases such as methane, ethane, and propane.
  • Medical industry: Medical gases, such as oxygen and nitrogen, must be free of moisture to prevent contamination and ensure patient safety. It is used to measure the moisture content of these gases in medical applications.
  • Research and development: Researchers and scientists may use the MODEL 973S™ Analyzer in various research applications where accurate moisture content measurement is critical.
