Robust Oxygen Probe for Process Control

Oxygen Probe for In-Line Measurement OIM-PSt3

The oxygen probe for in-line measurement (OIM) consists of a fitting made of stainless steel with an optical exchange cap (OEC) in which the oxygen sensor is integrated. The OEC is screwed to the top of the metal fitting, and can be exchanged. The OIM is connected to the oxygen meter via an optical fiber, has a standardized thread and length and is compatible with most bioreactors and port adapters. In addition, customized fittings for e. g. sight glasses are offered.

Applications

Process Control in Biotech & Pharma

The OIMs, the oxygen probes for in-line measurement, are designed for harsh measurement conditions. These systems give high accuracy and are almost maintenance-free as they do not contain any membranes and electrolytes. The sensors are fully autoclavable and sterilizable (CIP & SIP).


In-line Oxygen Measurement in Brewing and Beverage Industry

Even low concentrations of oxygen influence shelf-life and the taste of certain beverages. Due to the extraordinary low detection limit and outstanding accuracy of PreSens trace oxygen sensors, the quality of oxygen-sensitive products such as beer, wine and soft drinks is secured.
The optical sensors have – compared to standard electrodes – a very fast response time and they are very easy to maintain.
