Instrumentation: OCX8800 Oxygen/Combustibles Transmitter

The OCX 8800 with its rugged design, stable sensor, electronics and software package, is the most dependable oxygen/combustibles transmitter on the market. The time-tested and world renowned zirconium oxide sensor is the basis for the oxygen measurement. This, coupled with the new combustibles sensor can detect oxygen and combustibles concentrations in flue gases with temperatures up to 2600°F (1427°C).

• Integral or remote-mounted electronics options
• Fully field-repairable
• NEW Software Features
  • FOUNDATION® fieldbus and HART® Communications, AMS/PlantWeb® compatible
  • Air purge cycle improves cell calibration and effectiveness
• NEW Hardware Features
• Optional factory built auto-calibration panel
• Internal filter for use in higher than normal particulate levels
• Additional in situ filters
  • Large surface area filter for higher particulate levels
  • Stainless steel and hastelloy filter
• Suitable for process temperatures up to 2600ºF (1427ºC)

Benefits

• All information from the analyzer is updated constantly and provided to the operator or technician.  Low cost to maintain.
• Provides inputs for significant fuel savings which normally pay for the analyzer in less than one year
• Eliminates cost of mounting separate electronics as well as cabling and conduit between sensors and electronics
• Minimize drift and better sensitivity
• Ease-of-maintenance
• Suitable for use in most combustion applications
• High resistance to corrosion and high temperatures
• Longer life and higher resistance to sulphur
