Process Controls Corporation - CANTY Process Technology

Canty Process Technology Water in Oil – InFlow™ Analyzer is a vision-based imaging system for measuring water concentration and droplet size in oil.

The analyzer works with the Canty Vector System image processor and CantyVision™ software to distinguish water droplets from solid particles and gas bubbles within the sample or process stream.
