Request Information
The Nova 415 Series Trace O2 analyzers have been designed for the detection of trace levels of O2 in a non-corrosive gas stream. In operation, the O2 content in the sample gas is detected by a 'fuel cell' type electrochemical sensor. This sensor produces a small current output directly proportional to the O2 in the sample. This small output is compensated for temperature, amplified, and then displayed in PPM O2 on a digital meter. The signal is also sent to recorder terminals as a voltage or current output. As the sensor ages, the sealed internal electrolyte will be consumed and will require eventual replacement. The sensor normally lasts about 12 to 18 months and is a nominal-cost customer-replaceable part.
Unit of Measure

Specifications

Unique Applications

N/A

    The O2 sensor in the Model 415 is not normally affected by gas stream composition. However, high levels of acid gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) can cause slightly elevated O2 readings and decreased cell life. All Nova analyzers are built using proven technologies and techniques. If this product does not suit your application, please contact Nova. In many cases, we are able to build an analyzer specific to your needs.
