Durag D-R 290 Optical opacity-dust monitor

The DURAG D-R 290 has been used successfully for more than 15 years in various applications as reliable and low maintenance opacity / dust monitor. Now in its 2nd generation, the D-R 290 is a certified optical transmission monitor to measure the opacity or dust concentration of flue gases with medium to high dust concentrations.

The D-R 290 uses the double-pass method according to the auto-collimation principle. The light beam traverses the measuring path twice. The attenuation of the light beam by the dust content in the measuring section is measured and evaluated.

Key Benefits

  • Continuous and contact-less measurement
  • Automatic zero and span check
  • Automatic measurement and correction of contamination of optical surfaces
  • Extremely powerful and stable super-wide band diode (SWBD) light source
  • Extremely low-maintenance
  • Fail-safe shutters with purge air monitoring as option
  • Certified according to EN 15267-3
  • Compliant with US EPA 40 CFR 60 PS1 and ASTM 6216

Advantages of the new generation

  • Digital Modbus interface according to VDI 4201-3
  • Convenient operation with remote access option
  • All settings can be changed without opening the device
  • Compatible with universal display and control unit D-ISC 100
