Angst+Pfister Sensors and Power has recently launched and innovated a state-of-the-art oxygen transmitter FCX-TR2.0 designed for seamless integration into process chambers and installations through either screw-mount mechanism or forced flow cap -type configurations. This transmitter offers unparalleled convenience in mounting, complemented by an industrial standard output signal, rendering it the optimal choice for precise process control of oxygen levels, whether measured in parts per million (ppm) or percentage volume concentration levels (%vol.-O2). At the core of the FCX-TR2.0 oxygen transmitter lies the amperometric zirconia sensor, FCX-U series (FCX-UL, FCX-UC, or FCX-UWC), which is renowned for its reliability, stability and very long lifetime. This integration ensures uncompromised accuracy and performance, elevating the efficiency and effectiveness of oxygen level monitoring in many different industrial application areas.
Highlights of FCX-TR2.0 Transmitter:
• Integration and Installation: Easy integration into process chambers and gas flow lines, simplifies deployment and enhances operational efficiency.
• Reliable Signal Transmission: Low-noise amplification circuit converts seamlessly the microampere (µA) signal to standard analog 4 to 20 mA output signal or digital Modbus RTU interface.
• Precise Heater Control: High-precision heater controller ensures accurate regulation of sensor heater voltage and current, for optimal operational temperature and enhanced sensor performance as well as longevity.
• Accuracy and Consistency: The transmitter's accuracy mirrors that of the sensing element, ensuring consistently reliable measurements across diverse industrial application areas.
• Flexible Resolution: Adaptable resolution to specific application requirements, offering flexibility and customization options.
• Easy Connectivity: Equipped with a commercially used M12 connector, facilitating effortless connection to central power supplies, streamlining installation and setup processes.
• Maintenance and Calibration: Fully factory calibrated with optional calibration and maintenance via digital interface, allowing calibration without dismounting.
• Reliability and Lifetime: Optimized integration of zirconia sensing element with state-of-the-art signal electronic control offers reliable measurements with a lifespan exceeding 10 years.
FCX-TR2.0 offers integration into a very broad range of application areas. From process control or controlled atmosphere applications to additive manufacturing or fuel cells. The robustness, signal reliability and flexibility of FCX-TR2.0 makes it suitable for almost all of the oxygen detection application areas. The feature optimization which has been adopted during the development of this next generation of oxygen transmitter makes it one of a kind among the commercially available amperometric zirconia oxygen sensor modules.
