Oxygen Monitoring in Pipes at Changing Temperatures
Metal Flow-Through Cell with Integrated O2 and Temperature Sensor FTM2-PSt3/Pt100
This metal flow-through cell contains a sensor stick with PSt3 sensor (max. measurement range 0 - 100 % O2, limit of detection 0.03 % O2) and additionally has an integrated Pt100 temperature sensor. It has a connector diameter of 1/4" and is ideally suited for monitoring in liquids or gases at changing temperature, ensuring precise temperature compensated measurements. The sensor stick can easily be exchanged if necessary. The oxygen sensor is very robust and long-term stable. It can be cleaned by CIP (Cleaning in place, + 80 °C and 2 % NaOH) and stands steam sterilization (+ 130 °C, 1.5 atm). A polymer optical fiber with protective metal spiral tube is attached to the FTM2 via SMA connector.
- Max. measurement range of 0 - 100 % O2, limit of detection 0.03 % O2
- Integrated Pt100 temperature sensor
- No consumption of oxygen
- Signal independent of flow velocity
- Autoclavable, SIP (+ 130 °C, 1.5 atm) & CIP (+ 80 °C, 2 % NaOH)
