ProcessLab Hardware: Components, Housing, I/O Controller and more

With more than 60 years of experience, Metrohm has brought its expertise in ion analysis, liquid handling and software design to ProcessLab, which has been built to the exacting standards of all Metrohm instruments.
 
Components for Flexibility
The ProcessLab has a modular design and offers extraordinary flexibility. The project-specific configuration engineered by Metrohm specialists is tailored to your needs, based on your analytical and process-technology specifications.

The analysis modules are designed to the most recent state of technology, and the process section and the electrical/electronic section are kept hermetically apart. The housings are dust- and splash-proof. Both the process and the electrical/electronic sections of each compartment have a modular design. The flexible and modular device concept makes it possible to extend or reconfigure the system for new analytical requirements. Standard interfaces permit installing the various analysis modules at different locations or separating the control panel from the analysis module, offering numerous advantages, such as for analytical tasks in clean rooms or hazard zones.
