Microprocessor based 19" rack mounting oxygen measurement.

The 19" rack mounting PMA100 and PMA100-L provide fast, accurate and reliable oxygen measurement. The microprocessor based system provides a temperature controlled environment for the sensor, housed in a 19" rack mounting unit.

Paramagnetism is significantly higher for oxygen than other common gases.  The M&C magneto-dynamic measurement cell uses this physical phenomenon to provide the most accurate and reliable measurements available.

The small (2 ml) flow cell houses a robust sensor that can have a flow rate of up to 1 l/min. The small cell design improves speed of response and the paramagnetic sensor measures oxygen concentrations with a response time of less than 3 seconds.

The analyser is able to have user selectable ranges. See details on the PMA100 and PMA100-L by selecting the "Versions" tab for the most suitable unit for your application.

PMA100-L

PMA100-L

Datasheet for oxygen analyser PMA100L

The PMA100-L provides user configurable ranges and outputs from 0 to 1% to 0 to 100%.

Zero suppression is provided as standard to improve oxygen purity measurements.

PMA 100

PMA100

Datasheet for oxygen analyser PMA100

The PMA100 provides the same level of performance as the PMA100-L with the addition of:

  • an integral pressure sensor for pressure compensation
  • RS232  interface (optional (RS485)
  • the possibility to drive 3 external solenoids allowing automatic calibration routines
