The Green Instruments G16 Smoke Density Monitor is an advanced monitoring system, designed to measure particles of smoke and dust which is generated by diesel engines, boilers, incinerators, etc. in stacks. The G16 determines the level of particles in the smoke to provide precise combustion data for legal and financial reporting requirements. The Green Instruments G16 Smoke Density Monitor also ensures environmental compliance and measures the full range of opacity (0-100%). It is compact and simple to install in newbuilds and retrofits.
The G16 Smoke Density Monitor is designed to be installed in stacks on board vessels. The robust transceiver consists of a solid green laser, an optical system, and electronics. To provide precise data, a light beam with specific spectral characteristics is projected across the space inside the stack. The amount of light reflected back to the instrument from an installed reflector is compared with the maximum possible return when there is nothing obstructing the beam. The strength of the return signal thus indicates whether smoke and dust or other particulate matters are present in the stack. This double-pass measurement method ensures a high level of performance and reliability.
The G16 includes a HMI module, and is available with different interface options. home screen provides an immediate overview of smoke and dust density inside the stack. This means the crew will be provided with precise combustion data, which they need to report for legal requirements.
The opacity monitoring system provides multiple functions for control, graphic, and data logging and can be installed with an audit module for easy verification.
The G16 Smoke Density Monitor is available as an ATEX/IECEx certified version called G16 Ex. The G16 Ex is designed for use in hazardous areas.
