The OXY-FLEX Oxygen Transmitter accurately and reliably measures oxygen concentrations in air or gas mixtures. It is an essential solution for engineers focused on combustion control, process optimisation, and product quality assurance.
Designed for industrial environments, the OXY-FLEX combines robust construction with advanced zirconia sensing technology for dependable long-term operation.
High-Accuracy Oxygen Measurement Without a Reference Gas
At the core of the OXY-FLEX is a zirconium dioxide (zirconia) oxygen sensor that eliminates the need for a reference gas. This long-life, low-drift sensor ensures consistent performance even after extended burn-in periods. Engineers can choose between automatic or manual calibration, providing flexibility to suit specific process requirements.
The transmitter outputs raw and averaged oxygen readings, supporting applications that require stable or rapidly changing measurements.
Engineered for durability, the OXY-FLEX operates efficiently in environments ranging from -100°C (-148°F) up to +400°C (752°F). This broad temperature capability makes it ideal for boiler exhaust flues, industrial furnaces, and other high-temperature gas analysis applications.
Configurable Ranges and Output Flexibility
The OXY-FLEX offers customisable measurement ranges to meet specific application needs. Standard factory settings include 0–25% O₂ and 0–100% O₂ ranges, which can be adjusted via RS232 communication for enhanced sensitivity.
For example, when measuring oxygen in ambient air (around 20–21% O₂), the range can be narrowed to 19–22% O₂ for higher resolution and accuracy.
Selectable output filtering allows users to choose between fast-response dynamic outputs or smoothed, stable readings, depending on process stability and control requirements.
Proven Performance Across Multiple Industries
The OXY-FLEX oxygen transmitter is used across a wide range of industrial applications, including:
- Combustion Control for Industrial Boilers:
Suitable for oil, gas, coal, and biomass boilers, ensuring precise air-to-fuel ratio control for maximum combustion efficiency and reduced emissions. - Bakery Ovens:
Continuous monitoring of oxygen and steam levels supports consistent product quality and improved energy efficiency. - Composting Systems:
Real-time oxygen measurement enables better process control during decomposition, enhancing throughput and product consistency. - Duct and Pipe Monitoring:
Ideal for ventilation verification, gas composition monitoring, and fire suppression system testing to ensure safe and efficient operation.
Built for Industrial Environments
The OXY-FLEX is housed in a rugged IP66-rated enclosure, which is available in aluminium or stainless steel and offers protection against dust and water ingress.
All stainless steel models are CE, UKCA, and ISO9001 certified, ensuring compliance with international quality and safety standards.
To meet diverse installation needs, probe lengths are available in 200mm, 400mm, and 600mm, allowing integration into a range of ductwork and exhaust systems.
Simple Integration and Maintenance-Free Operation
Engineers will appreciate the OXY-FLEX’s straightforward installation and maintenance-free operation. No specialist software is required; simply connect and configure using standard interfaces.
The probe mounts directly via a compression gland, streamlining installation and reducing downtime during setup or replacement.
Optimising Combustion Efficiency in Boilers
Accurate oxygen measurement is key to achieving optimal combustion efficiency. By continuously monitoring oxygen in flue gases, the OXY-FLEX allows operators to fine-tune the air-to-fuel ratio, reducing fuel consumption, lowering emissions, and preventing incomplete combustion.
This results in improved energy efficiency, safer operation, and reduced total cost of ownership.
Compact, Cost-Effective, and Reliable
With its compact design, configurable outputs, and robust build quality, the OXY-FLEX is a cost-effective solution for measuring precision oxygen across multiple industrial environments. It’s ideal for engineers seeking performance, reliability, and long-term value in a single transmitter.
