Portable, Stand-alone Oxygen Meter
Fibox 3 LCD trace
The Fibox 3 LCD trace is a stand-alone fiber optic oxygen meter. It is temperature compensated and used with oxygen sensors based on a 2 mm optical fiber. Fibox 3 LCD trace is portable with a rechargeable battery and a built-in data-logger. It can be controlled via an integrated, programmable LCD control panel. Alternatively, the oxygen meter can be connected to a PC for measurement. Fibox 3 LCD is used for sensors type PSt3 (detection limit 15 ppb, 0 - 100 % oxygen), type PSt6 (detection limit 1 ppb, 0 - 5 % oxygen) and the ultra-trace sensor PSt9 (detection limit 0.5 ppmv, 0 - 200 ppmv O2).
- For use with non-invasive oxygen sensors, FTCs & sensor probes
- One calibration for a multitude of sensor spots
- Portable device with rechargeable battery
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.
