Chemtrac Systems, Inc.

Description

Since 1985, Chemtrac Inc. has been a leading manufacturer of process monitoring and control instruments used in water, wastewater, and other industrial processes. However, the company’s reputation and growth has been built around one mission – “RESULTS for the customer”. This will never change. We understand that our success depends on meeting and exceeding our customers expectations. With defined objectives and joint commitments, we will achieve the results you want.

For many water treatment applications, if installation is done correctly and as advised by the manufacturer, then the odds are that a Streaming Current Detector (SCD) will provide a useful benefit and in many cases can be used to automate coagulant dosing. However, not all applications are a good fit for this technology. Water chemistry and the exact type of coagulant being used play a huge role in determining whether a Streaming Current Detector is a good fit. In some cases, the chemistry and coagulant selection are not the problem. The problem is sometimes to do with process design.

It is an interesting fact that you will not see much agreement between manufacturers in how the Streaming Current reading is displayed. Some show the reading as -10.00 to +10.00, while another goes from -100.0 to +100.0, and while another still goes from -1000 to +1000. Part of the reason for this is because Streaming Current has long been accepted as a relative and unit-less number. So, decimal point or no decimal point is just personal taste of that manufacturer and not any kind of indication of measurement accuracy or sensitivity.
