The HYGROVISION-BL is an automatic condensation dew-point analyzer manufactured by NPO Vympel LLC, a Russian instrument-engineering company specializing in moisture measurement for the gas and oil industries. The device uniquely combines an automatic inline flow analyzer and a manual visual chilled-mirror hygrometer in a single portable unit — a capability that Vympel claims no other manufacturer in its class has achieved.
The instrument measures both water and hydrocarbon dew points by exploiting the Brewster-angle total refraction effect on a cooled dielectric mirror, coupled with a patented dual-channel optical observation system featuring 40× microscope magnification. Measurement accuracy reaches ±0.25 °C in Class A configuration across a dew point range from −60 °C to ambient.
The unit operates at gas pressures up to 23 MPa, accepts gas flows of 0.5–5 dm³/min, and offers IP67 environmental protection suitable for outdoor or hazardous-area installation. Autonomous operation from an internal rechargeable battery (minimum 4 hours) ensures continuity during power failures.
Data are stored for up to 5 years and can be transmitted via ModBus/RTU or IrDA. HYGROVISION-BL holds Russian State Metrological Approval, ATEX and TR TS 012/2011 explosion-safety certification, and TR TS 020/2011 EMC certification.
It was selected as the international comparison reference standard for national metrological institutes within the COOMET organization.
