Emissions Flow Monitoring
OSI - Model OFS-2000 - Optical Flow Sensor
The OFS-2000 has a range of 0-40m/sec and is the only flow sensor that gives a true non-contracting cross-stack flow measurement of the process. OSi`s patented Optical Flow Sensor (OFS) makes drift-free measurements across the entire stack, duct or pipe diameter and calculates an accurate average flow reading. It is the only flow sensor that gives a true non-contacting cross-stack flow measurement of the process. The OFS uses our EPA Method 14 approved optical scintillation technology. The optical scintillation technique relies on advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP) electronics to "see" and measure the movement of turbulence found in a gaseous flow stream to provide highly accurate, path-averaged air velocity measurements. The accuracy of the OFS has been proven both in NIST`s wind tunnel and in numerous real-world installations.
OSI - Model OFS-2000W - Optical Flow Sensors for Wet Scrubbers, Bag Houses, and High Opacity
The OFS-2000W model is equipped with Automatic Gain Control (AGC) to compensate for variations in opacity caused by particulate matter or moisture carried in the flow. OSi`s patented Optical Flow Sensor (OFS) makes drift-free measurements across the entire stack, duct or pipe diameter and calculates a true average flow reading. The OFS 2000-W model is equipped with Automatic Gain Control (AGC) to compensate for variations in opacity caused by particulate matter or moisture carried in the stack flow. The OFS uses our EPA Method 14 approved optical scintillation technology. The optical scintillation technique relies on advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP) electronics to "see" and measure the movement of turbulence found in a gaseous flow stream to provide highly accurate, path-averaged air velocity measurements. The accuracy of the OFS has been proven both in the NIST wind tunnel, and time after time in real-world applications.
OSI - Model OFS-2000F - Optical Flow Sensor (OFS) for Flares
The OFS-2000F was designed specifically for Flares stack sand reports flow velocities from 0.03 - 170 m/sec with a ± 2% accuracy. OSi`s patented Optical Flow Sensor (OFS) makes drift-free measurements across the entire stack, duct or pipe diameter and calculates an accurate average flow reading. It is the only flow sensor that gives a true non-contacting cross-stack flow measurement of the process. The OFS uses our EPA Method 14 approved optical scintillation technology.

OSI - Model OFS-2000P - Optical Particulate Mass Flow Sensor
The OFS-2000P Particulate and Flow sensors report Air Flow and a general Particulate loading and percent opacity in virtually any operating condition. OSi`s patented Optical Flow Sensor (OFS) makes drift-free measurements across the entire stack, duct or pipe diameter and calculates an accurate average flow reading. It is the only flow sensor that gives a true non-contacting cross-stack flow measurement of the process. The OFS uses our EPA Method 14 approved optical scintillation technology.

OSI - Model LOA-105 - Long-Baseline Optical Anemometer/Turbulence Sensors for Aluminum Smelters
LOA-105 Optical Anemometer for Aluminum Plants is specially designed for superior performance in tough pot room environments. The sensor uses proven optical technology to measure the airflow velocity through the roof vents. The eye-safe LED transmitter and twin photodiode receiver are placed at either end of the pot room and simply need to "look" through the HF flow to measure the airflow. Its maximum path length of 3 km allows the LOA to handle the biggest of pot room`s easily. The instrument is ready with features such as HF resistant windows and air knives to keep the windows clear. LOA has automatic gain control and continuous self-checking.
