Continuous Opacity Monitoring System

for Emissions Compliance and Process Performance Monitoring

The DURAG D-R 290 is a certified optical transmission monitor for compliance under U.S. EPA 40 CFR 60 PS1 to measure the opacity or dust concentration of flue gases with medium to high dust concentrations.

The D-R 290 operates using the double-pass method according to the auto-collimation principle. The light beam traverses the measuring path twice. The attenuation of the light beam by the dust content in the measuring section is measured and evaluated.
