Is your oxygen gas analysis accurate?

Gas temperatures of up to 600°C can be analysed by the sensor, with an additional Type K thermocouple providing independent temperature measurements. Auxiliary sensors can be added to suit the application for pressure or dew point.

An alternative to the zirconia sensor is an optional remote electrochemical oxygen sensor available for measuring 0–100% oxygen. Electrochemical sensors are suitable for applications where VOC’s or flammable gases are present in the gas sample. The electrochemical oxygen sensor is housed within a stainless-steel bulkhead, together with an integrated pressure sensor which compensates for small changes in gas pressure to ensure that the readings remain stable.

The Rapidox 2100 is available in a bench mounted configuration, or with a bezel front panel to incorporate the instrument within a rack.  Additionally, the Rapidox 2100 can be supplied within a wall mountable, IP65 weatherproof housing. The zirconia sensor can then be positioned remotely up to 26m away either in a separate cabinet or as a standalone sensor. For customers requiring seamless integration into their product or process, the Rapidox can also be supplied as an OEM solution.

Standard features on all models include two fully programmable alarm circuits (volt free contacts), programmable analogue outputs (0-10V and 4-20mA), easy calibration (user selectable gases), RS232/RS485 communications and complete data-logging software.

Applications can include: additive manufacturing, combustion, glove boxes, inert gas blanketing, manufacturing processes and metal heat treatment facilities.
