Need to optimize the amount of defoamer use? Need to find where air is getting into your system? Just want to make periodical checks on how much entrained air is in your system. All these and others can be done with the Entrained Gas Tester.
The Entrained Gas Tester (EGT) is used for determining the percentage of air that is entrained in a solution. For over four decades the pulp and paper industry has been using the EGT to measure the air content in solutions from pulp and paper washing and bleaching to the paper machine and coatings. Others have been using it for checking out their cooling towers or checking the air content of liquid solutions that are compatible with cast acrylic.
