A robust, linear and stable oxygen analyzer for measurements in gases such as hydrogen,
nitrogen or carbon dioxide. The sensor is housed in an IP66 rugged casing, making it suitable
for a wide range of applications. When supplied with flame arrestors, the analyzer becomes
explosion-proof and certified for use in hazardous areas.
Product Features
- General purpose or ATEX, IECEx, CCSAUS, TC, TR & Ex hazardous area certified models
- Ranges available: 0–0.5% up to 0–50% & 20, 80 or 90–100%
- Touch-screen display allows calibration or adjustment without the need for a hot works permit
- Intrinsic error (accuracy) is better than 1% full scale
- Zero span stability better than 0.25% of span per month
- Outputs include RS485 and two 4-20mA (following NAMUR NE 44 standard)
- Low cost of ownership due to minimal maintenance and no consumable parts
