Description

CS Instruments FA 515 Ex – Dew Point Sensor

CS Instruments FA 515 Ex – Dew Point Sensor Our new tool for dew point measurement resp. pressure dew point measurement in potentially explosive atmospheres. The FA 515 Ex can be used in many non-aggressive gases.

Core Operational Functions

Intrinsically Safe Dew Point Monitoring: Safely measures residual moisture in flammable gases or explosive ambient zones without risking spark ignition.
2-Wire Loop-Powered Output: Uses a standard $4\text{--}20\text{ mA}$ output powered via an intrinsically safe isolation barrier / zener barrier located in the safe area.
Condensation-Resistant Sensing Element: Features an improved capacitive polymer sensor element that recovers quickly after direct water exposure while maintaining long-term accuracy.
Pressure Isolation Sampling: Compatible with stainless steel measuring chambers for mounting directly on high-pressure pipelines or gas storage systems.

Accuracy	$pm 1text{ }^circtext{Ctd}$ at $0text{ to }+20text{ }^circtext{Ctd}$ $pm 2text{ }^circtext{Ctd}$ at $-70text{ to }-20text{ }^circtext{Ctd}$
Operating Pressure	$-1text{ to }50text{ bar}$ standard (High-pressure options up to $350text{ or }500text{ bar}$
Process Connection	G 1/2″ male thread (ISO 228/1) or UNF 5/8″-18 thread
Signal Output	$4text{--}20text{ mA}$ (2-wire loop-powered, linear to Ctd
Max Supply Limits	$U_i = 30text{ V DC}$ , $I_i = 100text{ mA}$ , $P_i = 0.75text{ W}$ (via galvanic isolator)

Features

Condensation Resistance: Features a long-term stable, polymer-based capacitive moisture sensor capable of withstanding saturated humidity conditions without calibration shift or permanent damage.
Heavy-Duty Construction: Stainless steel housing ( $1.4301$ ) rated to IP65 with standard G 1/2″ thread (or UNF 5/8″-18) supporting operational line pressures up to $50text{ bar}$ (optional high-pressure models up to $350text{ or }500text{ bar}$
Integrated Sintered Filter: Stainless steel sintered Cap protects the delicate internal sensor chip from particulate contamination, mechanical impact, and high velocity gas streams.

Applications

Natural Gas & Biogas Processing: Monitoring moisture levels in biomethane lines, natural gas dehydrators, and gas grid feed-in stations.
Petrochemical Refineries: Tracking dew point in hazardous processing areas where flammable hydrocarbon vapors are present.
Hydrogen ( $text{H}_2$ ) & Flammable Industrial Gases: Ensuring dry storage and transfer of explosive gases like hydrogen, methane, propane, and acetylene.
Paint Booths & Solvents: Monitoring compressed air quality in explosion-proof solvent spray zones and chemical dosing rooms.
