Portable InstrumentsMichell MDM300 & MDM300 I.S.Ideal for spot checks of dew point or moisture content, theMDM300 & MDM300 I.S. includes all the features neededfor efficient work. An extremely fast response and accurate,stable measurement are complemented by an instrumentwhich is easy to use, has data-logging and built in samplingcomponents as standard, and can be supplied with a rangeof accessories including sampling systems and a professionalcarry case. For use in hazardous areas the MDM300 I.S. hasATEX certification to II 1 G Ex ia IIC T4 Tamb -20ºC to+60ºC; FM; CSA; IECEx and GOST-R and GOST-K Standards.The MDM300 and MDM300 I.S. are both IP66/NEMA 4 rated,and therefore suitable for demanding outdoor applications.FeaturesThe MDM300 can provide measurement to -60°Cdp in gasesat atmospheric pressure in less than 15 minutes (30 minutesto -60°Cdp for MDM300 I.S.). This, combined with no requiredwaiting time between measurements, allows the user to takemany readings per day, increasing efficiency and reducingcosts when compared to other instruments on the market.Response Time (min)16128400-10MDM300 Response Times from +5 o C DP Initial Conditions(Including 3 min Sensor Conditioning)-20T90 Response Time-30-40T95 Response Time-50-60Dew Point Of Gas Being Measured ( o C)-70-80-90For the MDM300 I.S. Michell Instruments supplies an interfacebox allowing connection to the Easidew TX I.S. or EasidewPRO I.S. dew-point transmitters.Versatile samplingThe MDM300 offers versatile sampling arrangements rangingfrom simple fixed orifices for low pressure measurement toconfigurable high-pressure sampling systems up to 350 barg.A number of application kits are available providing out ofthe box sampling systems specifically for the most popularapplications. Please contact Michell Instruments for furtherdetails.Measurement in hazardous areasThe MDM300 I.S. has been certified by ATEX & IECEx,FM, CSA and GOST, for use in hazardous areas. This is theperfect portable instrument for use in natural gas plants,petrochemical refineries, offshore platforms and a range ofother hazardous areas.Simple to useThe rugged but ergonomic design of the MDM300 combinesindustrial durability with comfortable one- or two-handedoperation. The intuitive menu system and large, easy-to-pressbuttons enable the user to easily configure the instrument todisplay the parameters they require even with gloved hands.Best accuracyBest-in-class accuracy of 1°C dew point (from -60 to+20°Cdp) gives the user improved measurements. Everyinstrument undergoes a 13 point calibration over a period of10 days and all calibration certificates are traceable to nationalstandards via the NPL (UK) and NIST (USA).External sensor connection via 4-20mA loop-poweredinputExternal sensors for the measurement of dew point, pressureor temperature can easily be connected to the MDM300, andtheir readings displayed on the screen. These inputs can alsobe used to augment the measurement, such as by providinglive pressure compensation. In addition, the MDM300 canbe used to check and recalibrate Michell Easidew dew-pointtransmitters, affording the user the benefit of a verificationwithout the associated downtime.www.michell.com

218mm (8.56”)Portable InstrumentsSensor TechnologyCeramic Impedance SensorThe MDM300 uses Michell’s highly developed ceramicImpedance sensor, which is constructed using state-of-theart thin and thick film techniques. Operation of the sensordepends upon the adsorption of water vapour into a porousnon-conducting “sandwich” between two conductive layersbuilt on top of a base ceramic substrate. The active sensorlayer is very thin – less than one micron and the porous upperlayer that allows transmission of water vapour into the sensoris less than one nano-metre.The resulting sensor responds rapidly to changes in moisture– both in measuring humidity and also when being dried. It isvery rugged and gives 1°C dew-point accuracy coupled withexcellent long-term reliability and stability.DimensionsMoistureMoleculesPermeable Gold filmHygroscopic Mono-layerBase ElectrodeCeramic SubstrateOrdering InformationMichell ceramic sensor tile layers90mm (3.54”)Order codeMDM300-STDMDM300-ISDescriptionMDM300 Advanced Dew-Point HygrometerStandard versionMDM300 I.S.
