On-line Sodium Monitor to Benefit Users Seeking Simplicity and afordability

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., has unveiled the new Thermo Scientific Orion 2111XP Sodium Monitor, adding to an extensive offering of on-line products for customers in the power generation market. The Orion 2111XP is designed for ease-of-use and reliability for users at any skill level.

Thermo Fisher developed the Orion 2111XP Sodium Monitor based on the outstanding performance and longevity supplied by the company's legacy product, the Orion 1811EL and the success of the Thermo Scientific Orion 2111LL Low Level Sodium Monitor for trace sodium detection limits (ppt). The new Orion 2111XP Sodium Monitor expands the full breadth of the Thermo Scientific On-line Sodium Monitor series offering a new standard in quality and flexible capabilities -- meeting almost all sodium measurement needs. The Orion 2111XP is designed for value and flexibility in the ultra-pure steam loop for power generation, as well as many other industrial applications for accurate and reliable sodium monitoring.

"At Thermo Fisher Scientific, we understand that power generation encompasses a variety of challenging applications, many of which are critical to maintaining plant integrity and efficiency. Today, sodium monitoring not only requires early detection of sodium to optimize plant performance and protect your bottom line, but it also requires an instrument that is sensitive, selective, reliable and verifiable to protect against the costly effects of corrosion," noted Ron Breaux, director of NA sales for water analysis instruments at Thermo Fisher Scientific. "With that in mind, we developed the new, easy-to-install 2111XP Sodium Monitor, offering simple operation and accurate results. Most important, the 2111XP combines our industry leading technology with an advanced user interface utilizing simple step-by-step scrolling instructions detailing calibration, measurement and diagnostic features easily understood by users with any level of experience."

Rugged and affordable, the Orion 2111XP is built to withstand the demands of continuous on-line use in severe conditions. Ideally suited for sodium measurements in a variety of applications around the plant, including low-range boiler feedwater analysis, monitoring ion exchange
breakthrough or high acid measurements, the Orion 2111XP expandable platform offers a new level of flexibility for a plant's operation.
