The IM 5000 is a state-of-the-art continuous flue-gas monitoring system and is designed for a wide variety of flue-gas monitoring applications. The IM 5000 is a stand-alone analyzer that works automatically. The rugged wall mounted enclosure meets NEMA type 4X (IP65) standards. The modular approach of the IM 5000 allows one or more gases (up to 8) to be measured simultaneously. The IM 5000 uses the latest sensor technology from electro-chemical sensors up to NDIR benches. The system can analyze samples taken from up to 4 different sampling points. This sequential measurement is only possible with the addition of multiple gas sampling and conditioning devices (IM 400). The IM 5000 offers various outputs such as a serial interface (RS232/RS485), an analog output (volts / current) and an alarm (relay). All of the above features allow the IM 5000 to be configured for a variety of applications and can easily be upgraded in the future.
