Combination Probe KS1D

KS1

Simultaneous measurement of the concentration of O2 
and oxidising gas constituents (CO/H2) 

  • Heated, electro-chemical measuring cell, made of zirconium dioxide ceramic (ZrO2)
  • Use of proven measuring principles
  • Simultaneous measuring of oxygen O2 and detection of oxidisable (combustible) parts of flue gas 
  • Display as COequivalent (COe)
  • Cost-efficient measuring for monitoring and optimisation of oil- and gas combustions

Range of measuring O2:

0…18%Vol. O2 – with limitations 0…21 Vol.% O2
COe: 0…1.000 ppm COe, 0…10.000 ppm COe on request

Preciseness of measuring:

O2: +-5% of measuring value – not better than +- 0,3 Vol.%
COe: +-25% of measuring value – not better than +- 10 ppm
after prior alignment of application conditions with a CO reference measuring in a range of measuring 0…100 ppm: <= 10 ppm

Response time t60:
(60% of final value)

O2 <= 10 seconds
COe <= 2 seconds

Failure impact:

Change of temperature of measuring gas in dependency of preciseness of temperature control of ZrO2 measuring cell

Cross-sensitivity:

against SO2, NH3, NO, Propan, other arenes
