Respirometer
Determination of the Dynamic Respirometric Index
The respirometer is an instrument that allows you to measure the “Dynamic Respirometric Index” (DRI).
The measurement of the respiratory activity of the organic matrix is the most significant parameter for determining biological stability.
The DRI is the result of the dynamic respirometric test which measures the hourly consumption of oxygen used for the biochemical oxidation of biodegradable compounds.
- The determination of the biological stability of a biomass performed by measuring the respiration index using the dynamic DiFCA method (1) (now Di.Pro.Ve.).
- Carrying out biostabilization and/or biodrying tests comparable with full-scale processes conducted in the plant.
- Control of the main process parameters, evaluation of their performance and the possibilities of intervention on them during the respirometric tests.
- Recording a large amount of data through a PC equipped with an interface card and software that allows you to set minimum acquisition intervals of 1 minute.
Compared to the previous model, the Respirometer 3028 has been implemented and updated to modern technologies. The main points of innovation and advantage of the new equipment are listed below.
The device management board collects all the latest innovations available on the market; it is much more durable and easy to update.
The card has a large internal memory to store a large number of analyses, always retrievable and viewable over time.
You can choose between two types of probe: optical probe or electrochemical oxygen measurement probe.
Flow meter from 0 l/h to 300 l/h.
The software is updated according to modern concepts, it is user-friendly and easy to use.
The same software allows you to set up an analysis, monitor its progress, prepare and produce reports, load and modify previous analyses and monitor the maintenance status of the device.
The export files are in pdf and csv format.
Possibility of connection and integration of the instrument into the company network via LAN or WI-FI connection, and monitoring via mobile phone.
Automatic back-up in case of shutdown due to external causes; the instrument is able to resume the analysis and guarantees to recover the data acquired up to the moment of suspension.
