Intelligent All s::can sensors are intelligent, they are digital and have the controller, the brain, built in. They check their health every second and can communicate with the operator. Optical If possible, we always use optical methods, since they are just better, more reliable, simpler and more accurate. If no optical method is suitable, we choose the next best alternative. Online We make nothing for laboratories, nothing that consumes reagents, nothing with moving parts. s::can is the only real „on-line“ company in the industry that offer an almost complete range of sensors and parameters, and nothing else.
The measurements make use of the specific absorption signals caused by (groups of) substances
Latest generation of s::can operator terminal High-performance, power efficient industrial PC based on newest Intel Atom technology Highly intuitive use because of wide screen color graphical display (7”) and touch screen Extended input options (e.g. also SDI12 interface) for almost any sensor, analyzer and other analogue or digital I/Os Worldwide network connectivity thanks to quad-band WCDMA and dual-band network connection technology Easy data transfer via automatic file transfer utilizing FTP
