Building on the success of the Servomex 4100, The SERVOPRO MultiExact will combine Servomex’s industry-leading analyser performance with a range of new and enhanced functions incorporated as standard. The MultiExact will provide two simultaneous measurements for O₂ Purity, O₂ Control, O₂ Trace, CO₂ Trace and N₂O Trace from one analyser family, offering unparalleled ease-of-use while minimising maintenance and cost of ownership.

The MultiExact showcases Servomex’s expertise in gas sensing technologies to deliver exceptional levels of accuracy, stability and reliability for all required gas measurements. Servomex’s unique paramagnetic cell technology, enhanced with temperature control and pressure compensation, ensures accurate, highly stable measurements for O₂ Purity while reliable monitoring for O₂ Trace is provided by Servomex’s acclaimed zirconia cell design. CO₂ Trace and N₂O Trace are measured using Servomex’s innovative infra-red gas filter correlation (GFx) technology, delivering highly stable, sensitive and selective measurement for both gases.

Enhanced by a simple, intuitive interface that requires minimum training, the MultiExact introduces a range of innovations that greatly enhance operational flexibility for ASU engineers. An advanced mA autoranging functionality is incorporated as standard, allowing users to customise measurement ranges, while a user-definable air point calibration function for O₂ Trace enables greater flexibility to accept different sources of calibration oxygen. User downtime is further minimised by autovalidation and autocalibration functions that enable a calibration check without suspending operation.

Comprehensive communication protocols are available, with RS232 serial communications implemented as standard and options available to install both Ethernet connectivity and Modbus™ via RS485. The MultiExact also offers NAMUR-compliant fault relay functions, allowing alarms, maintenance and service-in-progress messages to be communicated remotely.

A number of further upgrades are available for the MultiExact including ProfiBus™ communications, an internal valve block function and the installation of a unique Servomex-designed flow sensor, positioned after the measurement outlet, to ensure flow is constantly monitored.

The MultiExact is available in bench top, panel or 19” rackmount options, with the same 3U height dimensions as the 4100 making rackmount replacement a straightforward process. The MultiExact’s dual component capability enables two GFx to be installed in a compact short chassis, reducing the unit’s footprint to help save valuable space. The introduction of digital ‘plug and play’ transducers and enhanced diagnostics means the MultiExact is simple and cost-effective to service.

The MultiExact is therefore the ideal single-unit solution for air separation plants, suitable for a full range of operations including process control and product purity measurement.

“Servomex’s expertise in gas analysis is based not only on our technologies, but understanding the very specific needs of our customers,” says Chris Cottrell, Managing Director, Servomex.
“The MultiExact has been developed with the end user in mind, and the increased functionality and new digital options will give ASU owners unparalleled, cost-effective performance for their operations.”

Customers, suppliers and Servomex representatives from around the world were present at an official opening ceremony that featured the unveiling of a commemorative plaque by John O’Higgins, CEO of parent company Spectris plc.

Replacing the company’s former ageing premises, currently divided across two nearby sites, the flagship building merges Servomex’s sales and marketing, production, management and R&D facilities and staff under one roof. Representing a multi-million pound investment, the 51,000 square foot, two-storey facility has been designed and built to the latest environmental standards, including the use of heat exchangers to maximise heating efficiency and motion sensor lighting to reduce power wastage.

“Servomex is immensely proud to be opening this new technical centre, which will greatly strengthen the backbone of our global operations,” said Chris Cottrell, Managing Director, Servomex.
“This state-of-the-art facility will enable us to increase support to all our operations, bringing a range of benefits from optimised response times for orders, service and support to ensuring Servomex continues to develop and innovate the world’s best gas analysers.”

The opening of the technical centre is the highlight of a global rebrand for Servomex, which has introduced a range of customer-focused changes to its worldwide operations including a business reorganisation, a new website at www.servomex.com and the recent opening of three business centres in Shanghai, Houston and Zoetermeer in Holland.

Servomex will supply to analyser plants for Air Liquide’s operations worldwide, with the Servomex team applying its products and expertise to ensure the air separation production processes run to their optimum capabilities across a large number of sites.

Servomex was chosen by Air Liquide on number of criteria of critical importance, most notably the ability to provide products with an excellent track record for performance and reliability, as well as high levels of quality service and technical support.

“The close working relationship between Servomex and Air Liquide signals a new phase in our development,” says Chris Cottrell, Managing Director of Servomex.

“Air Liquide has chosen Servomex for a number of reasons, but what is particularly pleasing for us is that this is not based solely on the established quality of our analysers but on the comprehensive technical support we offer. This will give Air Liquide total peace-of-mind and also help keep their operations running smoothly. We look forward to working with them."

In addition to exhibiting an acclaimed range of industry-leading products and services for hydrocarbon processing, industrial gas and OEM markets, Servomex will be presenting the ground-breaking SERVOTOUGH-Oxy and SERVOPRO-MultiExact analysers which set new industry benchmarks in flexible, accurate and reliable gas measurement.

Offering an exceptional range of industry-standard options and innovating no less than three unique functions, the Oxy replaces the acclaimed Servomex 1900 to set new standards of performance from a single, cost-effective unit. By incorporating enhanced operation functions that maximise flexibility of configuration and application of use, the Oxy can be configured for a range of uses including process control, safety critical oxidation, flare stack analysis, product purity, feedstock clean-up and inerting/ blanketing.

The MultiExact offers air separation plants an innovative multi-gas analyser specifically developed and optimized to the latest industry requirements. Building on the success of the Servomex 4100, the MultiExact offers two simultaneous measurements for O₂ Purity, O₂ Control, O₂ Trace, CO₂ Trace and N₂O Trace from one analyser family, offering unparalleled ease-of-use while minimising maintenance and cost of ownership.

Miconex is also an opportunity for visitors to experience Servomex’s new rebrand, reflecting a range of customer-focused improvements that includes the opening of an Asia Pacific business centre in Shanghai to provide specialist support and service across the region. In addition, the Oxy and MultiExact highlight the use of a revised, easy-to-use product naming system that has been applied to all Servomex products including the recently acquired KA range of hydrocarbon analysers.

Servomex sales and technical staff will be present at stand 8B066 throughout Miconex to meet visitors and answer questions about Servomex’s comprehensive range of products, skills and services.

The Oxy builds on the success of the 1900 series by providing the same measurement advantages and a series of new and enhanced operation functions that maximises flexibility of configuration and application of use. As well as fault and calibration histories, all units offer NAMUR-compliant relay functions, allowing two concentration alarm levels and maintenance required, service in progress and instrument fault messages to be communicated remotely. A comprehensive Modbus protocol allows remote communication and interrogation of the unit as standard via RS485, as well as an option for Ethernet connectivity. Autovalidation and autocalibration functions allow users complete flexibility for unmanned or remote operation, or to generate maintenance and reliability schedules using trending information. Stainless steel pipe work, automatic range change, fixed background gas compensation and measurement filtration are also now included as standard.

The Oxy introduces three unique options designed and implemented by Servomex that not only greatly raises the standard for comparable units, but offers the potential for cost savings in installation and operational performance.

An innovative, fully heated sample compartment removes the requirement for a sampling conditioning system on all samples with a dew point of up to 50 degrees centigrade. Responsible for up to 80% of failures in comparable units, sample conditioning failure is a major cause of unplanned downtime. The heated sample compartment design reduces this risk of downtime by the removal of coolers, dryers and other conditioning devices. This design improves operational cost as well as initial system and integration costs, making it especially ideal for use where ‘wet’ gases are to be measured.

Servomex’s determination to deliver users the most safe, accurate and reliable levels of measurement remains at the forefront of its design philosophy – and a unique flow sensor manufactured by Servomex has been placed after the measurement outlet, guaranteeing accurate flow alarm settings for all uses including safety applications.

The final major innovation of the Oxy is the creation of an integrated pressure compensation system that not only compensates for barometric pressure but also for back pressure variations from flare stacks, enabling emission compliance targets to be easily met. Both the flow sensor and pressure compensation system technologies report via the instrument’s standard communication options, providing all measurement and safety benefits without the need to install additional devices and cost-hungry cabling.

The Oxy therefore offers a total oxygen solution that can be configured to the requirements of a wide range of applications. Potential applications include usage in process control, safety critical oxidation such as ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, flare stack analysis, product purity, feedstock clean-up and inerting or blanketing.

The advanced capabilities of the Oxy will make it the prime replacement for older Servomex 540 and 1100 units that are at the end of their supported life. Servomex offers a comprehensive support package for users considering changeout of these units and details are available direct from Servomex’s business centres.
