Overview

The revolutionary Dansensor ® MAP Mix Provectus Argon uses an entirely new operating principle to advance the accuracy, operation and appearance of a gas mixer. Simple to use, highly reliable and rich in data, this mixer gives vital feedback on information such as current gas flow, total gas consumption and actual gas mix at any time.

It is also simple to configure. When ordering, you no longer need to worry about specifying the correct pressure, combinaion of gasses or whether it will work with your onsite generation system. Your only decision is whether you need to mix two or three gasses. All other specifications can be set the first time you start the gas mixer.

Even though it is only slightly larger than a shoebox, the Dansensor MAP Mix Provectus Argon still delivers an outstanding gas mixing capacity of up to 90 m3/hour (3200 SCHF). If you require even more, you can bridge up to three mixers and triple the capacity.

Additional benefits with the Dansensor MAP Mix Provectus:

Full integration with Dansensor® MAP Check 3
Options for mixing 2-3 gases, including O2, N2, CO2, and Ar
Data logging of gas consumption, date, time and gas mix

Features and Benefits

Benefits

Uses an intuitive touch screen for easy set-up and operation
Meets traceability requirements by storing accurate information about current gas flow, consumption over time and gas mix
Avoids operator errors with programming of up to 10 standard gas mixes
Integrates fully with the Dansensor MAP Check 3 gas analyzer for ultimate effectiveness
Helps reduce gas cost on flow packaging machines when used in combination with Dansensor MAP Check 3

Features

Data logging of consumption, date, time and gas mix
Very low pressure drop over the mixer, making it suitable for working with nitrogen and oxygen generators
USB, Ethernet (LAN), RS232, Modbus TCP connections for data logging and control
Mixes oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, air and argon
