The Application:
The Trace Oxygen Analyser AMS 3186 operates on base of an electrochemical sensor. The Trace Oxygen Analyser AMS 3186 is a micro-processor controlled analyser for the highly accurate measurement of lowest oxygen traces. Changes in concentrations of < 0,1 ppm of oxygen with a resolution of 0,01 ppm can be measured. The available housings are designed for use in General Applications. The lowest oxygen measuring range is 0 … 1 ppm.
The Measuring system:
Besides of the measuring cell and pneumatic components we are also heating the gas pipes or the highest repeatability / stability measurement in a range of 0…1 ppm. For that reason our analyser is divided into 2 parts. The electrical connections are done by assembled cables on the backsite of the analyser via screws. The temperature in the pneumatic cassette is controlled and adjusted to a fixed value (range +10…+40°C). By that fact the fluctuations of the ambient temperature can be taken into account. An easy exchange of the gas-tight-potted cell leads to a very fast restart of the measurement and avoids large purge times.
