Thermo Scientific HAAKE PCR 630 Process Control Rheometer
Product Specifications
The HAAKE PCR 630 logs all data and events in a database for trend analysis, SPC reporting and data storage. The HAAKE PCR 630 is a ”return to stream” design and is available with a valve block for process isolation and an optical block to allow online spectroscopic analysis (offered as options, additional equipment required). All melts pumps and slit dies are easily exchangeable to adapt the rheometer to specific processes.
Control Features
The HAAKE PCR 630 electronics, based on the SLC-500® PLC from Rockwell International (Allen-Brad ley), provides superior support and integration using industry standard components and technologies.
The NEW Process Supervisor for Microsoft® Windows® software, available for the HAAKE PCR 630, offers unmatched easeof use and an operator friendly design. The software, based on RSView® 32™, is designed for integration into plant DCS systems. It offers data com muni cation with a variety of protocols like, Data Highway plus®, ModBus® and the latest innovation in process control, OPC (OLE for Process
Control). Standard analog signals (4-20 mA or 24 VDC) are also available.
Installation & Maintenance Installation expertise exists for adaption to extruders from all the major manufacturers. The HAAKE PCR 630 is typically installed on finishing and com poun ding extruders upstream to a pelletizer or mounted as aside stream with a piping adapter. It can be retrofitted to many existing process systems. It is also interchangeable with existing
PCR and MFM installations as an upgrade option. The rheometer is backed by a worldwide, direct support system for service and training of plant personnel. We also provide services to assist with the integration of the HAAKE PCR 630 in plant DCS systems. The HAAKE PCR 630 design concept provides superior ease of maintenance features with its design concept and easy access to all critical components.
The HAAKE PCR 630 can be removed from the pro cess by closing its isolation valves and removing only 2 bolts. The vast majority of maintain able components are standard stock items from major vendors of polymer processing hardware.
