The Intercon Integral Oxygen Indicator
incorporates many of the features of the
successful OXY2 with two distinct advantages:
it is hand-held and battery-powered.
The Intercon Integral incorporates a
maintenance-free, non-depleting ceramic
sensor, which can accurately measure rest
oxygen levels as small as 1 ppm (part per million)
volume.
Oxygen indicators with readout
capabilities of only 0.1% (1000 ppm) or 0.01%
(100 ppm) are not suitable for the welding
industry as most precision welding is done below
70 ppm.
This ceramic sensor is encased in a
robust housing and is designed for job site as
well as clean room work.
The Intercon Integral is designed to process the
output from an oxygen sensor made of stabilized
zirconium oxide. This material is a ceramic, also
known as a solid electrolyte and is ideally suited
to high temperatures like those used as an
oxygen ion conductor.
Such ion conductors
whose temperature range is dependent on the
composition of the material, possess the
capability to fill empty spaces in their crystal
structure with oxygen ions. The oxygen ions
attach themselves to conductive platinum
surfaces. The degree of oxygen concentration
in gas determines the degree of oxygen activity
and thus, the quantity of oxygen ions.
The Integral sensor consists of a solid
electrolyte, which is exposed to gas on both
sides. One side is in contact with a reference
gas: air; the other with the gas to be measured.
Using both heated and unheated sensors a
computation is done to give an accurate reading.
Maintenance and calibration-free make this the
premium choice in oxygen analyzing.
The Integral is a maintenance-free, non-
depleting oxygen indicator with an operating
range of 999 ppm to 1 ppm.
This unit
incorporates an internal pump and is designed
for measuring rest oxygen in inert gases such
as argon. Using the supplied battery charging
station, this unit can be used up to 4 hours before
recharging is necessary.
