GE Panametrics MTS5-321-10 Detailed Information
I. Product Origin and Positioning
Brand Origin: Formerly Panametrics (Panametrics), later acquired and integrated by GE and incorporated into GE Detection Technology (now part of Baker Hughes, the online moisture/gas analysis product line)
Full Name of Equipment: Moisture Target Meter – Humidity Measurement Host (Dew Point / Trace Moisture Monitoring Unit)
Origin: Waltham, MA, USA
Life Cycle: The original factory has already ceased production (End of Life, EOL). Currently, there are only dismantled second-hand units, inventory spare parts available on the market, mostly used for replacing components in online monitoring systems for trace moisture in natural gas and petrochemical pipelines
Core Electrical Parameters on the Nameplate (Can be found on the body label)
Model: MTS5-321-10
Power Supply: 120V AC, 50/60Hz
Power Consumption: 10 Watts
Alarm Relay Contact Capacity: 2A @ 28V
Series: MTS5 Series Online Trace Moisture Analyzer Secondary Display / Transmitter Unit
Additional Probe: Requires an external Panametrics dedicated moisture sensing probe (PROBE interface)

Interfaces and Terminal Functions (Body Terminal Connectors)
PROBE IN: Sensor probe input interface, collecting the original signals of trace moisture / dew point in the pipeline
RCOR: Reading Correction Terminal, used for on-site humidity calibration compensation
ANALOG A / ANALOG B: Two analog output channels, capable of outputting 4-20mA for connection to DCS/PLC
FAULT: Host’s own fault contact point alarm output
ALARM: Alarm output for moisture exceeding the set threshold
Internal integrated signal conditioning, threshold comparison, and self-diagnosis circuitry; panel with calibration adjustment knob

Measurement Applications and Industry Applications
MTS5 Series belongs to online monitoring instruments for trace moisture (water dew point) in natural gas. Typical scenarios:
Monitoring the moisture content of natural gas in long-distance natural gas pipelines, LNG gasification stations to prevent water hydrate freezing blockage
Monitoring the dew point after drying of compressed air and process gases
Trace moisture detection in petrochemical refineries’ process gases to ensure equipment and catalyst safety
Can output analog signals for uploading to SCADA system, triggering interlock alarms when exceeding the set threshold

Panel Indicator Lights / Status Logic
FAULT: Host failure, probe disconnection / short circuit, signal beyond the range
ALARM: Measured gas moisture content exceeds the set alarm threshold
Equipped with a calibration knob, supports on-site single-point / multi-point calibration
