The new Oxy-Integral from Orbitec is accurate at titanium weld purging levels and, when integrated with the company's orbital welding controllers, can isolate the process and provide traceable documentation, enhancing safety and weld integrity. Oxy-Integral is a high accuracy oxygen meter (1-999ppm range) that uses a precision chemical cell (Zirconium Oxide) to determine low-volume oxygen levels compared with normal air. The unit can be calibrated in normal ambient conditions and will read down to one part per million.
With its integrated sampling pump, the latest models can be used independently, as an integrated unit with Orbitec's unique TIGTRONIC controller providing documented traceability or interfaced with any other orbital welding manufacturer's controllers.
The interlock function allows OxyINTEGRAL to be used as a condition isolator, preventing welding taking place where Oxygen levels are likely to cause oxidation or bad welds.
An optional analyser, the Oxy-2, provides calibrated measurement of pure or mixed inert gases and controls processes throughout the welding sequence.
A rechargeable battery pack and base station are standard features of OxyINTEGRAL and its light weight and ergonomic shape make it the ideal portable instrument for all orbital welding applications, whatever the equipment being used.
The Oxy-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 Oxy-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 Oxy-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.
Developed using start-of-the-art design and the latest manufacturing techniques, the microprocessor based AN300 nitrogen balance analyser has been designed for specialist vehicles applications. The application is the testing of nitrogen in vehicle tyres. Specialist applications (large aircraft, motor racing tyres, heavy machinery) use nitrogen as an inflation gas for a number of reasons; the nitrogen permeates through the tyre casing at around a third of the rate of oxygen, which keeps tyres inflated for longer. It also reduces the oxidation caused by oxygen and water vapour, thus extending the life of the tyre, and has a lower expansion rate with temperature, resulting in more even pressures under various conditions. The monitor has a stem for connecting to the tyre valve.
Featuring easy calibration, settings are secured when the lock key is pressed. In addition the low power draw allows the unit to continuously for 2000 hours on just 3 AA alkaline batteries. The AN300 features the improved N33 oxygen sensor which provides superior long-term stability and accuracy.

The oxygen analysers in the G1010 Series use galvanic cell primary elements and can measure oxygen concentrations from 100% to 0.1ppm (parts per million) in a variety of gases. The instruments are micro-processor-controlled and provide exceptional performance and versatility.
A large multi-digit, auto-ranging LCD shows the concentration and user-adjustable parameters.
Two alarm channels, user-programmable to be high, low or off, each provide one set of volt-free changeover contacts, and can be set to any concentration within the span of the instrument.
A user programmable analogue output can be set to one of several ranges. A choice of 0 to 5v or 4 to 20mA is provided at the time of ordering.
Several versions of sensor are available, enabling the analyser to operate at optimum performance in a diverse range of applications. These include a sensor suitable for operating in the presence of high concentrations of mildly acidic gases such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide.
Remote sensor versions are available that allow the separation of the control/ display module and sensor by up to several hundred metres. Depending on the distance and concentration being measured, the sensor is either connected directly to the display module or via an integral two-wire transmitter.
Because the sensor conforms to the ‘simple apparatus’ category as defined by European standard EN 50020, remote sensors may be located in a hazardous area. A suitable zener barrier or galvanic isolator must be inserted between the sensor assembly and the control/display module.
Three other analysers are derived from the G1010: The bench-top G210 is a mains powered analyser which can be equipped with a variety of sampling systems and accessories including a pump, filter and flow control.

Brand new for 2007 is the Rapidox 4100 electrochemical cell oxygen gas analyser covering the range 0.1ppm to 100% Based on the Hitech G1010 OEM module this unit is housed in our smart metal case with carry handle and tilting feet.
The new Rapidox 4100 incorporates a powerful and silent linear piston pump for remote sampling of gas. Connections are made using 6/4mm flexible tubing to the front panel input and output unions. The front panel includes a flow gauge allowing the user to control the rate of gas flow into the analyzer from 0 to 1 litres per minute.
The heart of the Rapidox 4100 is a top-of-the-range Medo linear-motor-driven free piston vacuum pump manufactured by Nitto a world leader in pump technology. The pumps are exceptionally quiet (40 dB/m or less).
New for 2009 the Rapidox 3100C SF6 analyser. SF6 is a man-made gas used in high-voltage switchgear because of its great arc quenching capabilities. Partial discharges and leaks over time eventually cause the SF6 to decompose into highly corrosive compounds. It is therefore essential to monitor the condition of the SF6 to protect the equipment from spark damage and corrosion.
The Rapidox 3100C is a multi-gas analyser for the simultaneous measurement of SF6 (0-100%), SO2 (0-100ppm) and dewpoint (-65°C/+20°C). The analyser is designed for controlling and monitoring the quality of SF6 in gas insulated sub-stations and circuit breakers. The analyser not only measures the SF6 gas content in air or nitrogen over the full range, but also measures the moisture content of the SF6 which is essential when monitoring the dielectric strength of the gas. The decomposition products of SF6 can be identified by analysing the SO2 content of the gas; this forms from the breakdown of SOF2 and SOF4 after an electrical discharge. The analyser incorporates an electrochemical SO2 sensor to measure ppm levels of sulfur dioxide. All three gases can be monitored and data-logged simultaneously and just a few minutes are required to get a stable reading.
Regular checking of SF6 gas insulated substations allows fault preventative maintenance programs to be implemented, and increases the life cycle of the SF6.
The analyser has a gas output nozzle allowing all sampled gas to be recovered and recycled, ensuring that no SF6 gas is released into the atmosphere (in accordance with the Kyoto agreement).

The sensor head comprises a zirconia ceramic tube that needs to be heated to 650°C before it will conduct oxygen ions. The analyser supplies heat to the sensor, which is controlled very accurately by a regulated power supply incorporated in the instrument.
The analyser is packed with features including fully programmable alarm circuits, programmable analogue outputs, easy calibration (user selectable gases), RS232 communications, independent type K thermocouple, sensor cleaning and a full set of communications / data-logging software.
New to the Rapidox 2100 is vacuum and helium mode operation allowing the analyser to work in vacuum systems and in helium gas mixtures. Helium is notoriously difficult to work with because of its high thermal conductivity but this has been overcome in the 2100. Also available for the first time is the option to use an independent pressure sensor, vacuum sensor OR dew-point sensor to monitor independently. The pressure sensor can be linked with the sensor signal to give fully pressure corrected readings, or as a totally independent sensor.
New for 2009 Cambridge Sensotec are pleased to offer the Rapidox 1100; our entry level oxygen gas analyser. Based on the successful Rapidox 3100 this unit is smaller and more compact, yet retains many of the features offered in its larger brother. It is our first ever unit offered with EITHER an electrochemical cell OR a zirconia cell at the same price! The R1100 has a fixed flow sample pump for continuous sampling of the gas, and comes packed with features such as data-logging software, programmable alarms, programmable outputs and data-logging software.
The R1100E is based on the World-renowned Yuasa electrochemical cell which has a very long life (3-5 years) and is resistant to poisoning from carbon dioxide. The 1100E is suitable for use with hydrogen, helium and CH4 containing gases that are not compatible with zirconia. Range is 0.01% to 100% O2
The R1100Z is based on our Rapidox 3100 system and contains a zirconia sensor for enhanced range and speed. Zirconia sensors have many advantages over electrochemical sensors such as speed of response and low ppm measurements. However not all gases (e.g. flammable) are suitable for use with a zirconia sensor and in this case the R1100E is more appropriate. Range is 1.0ppm to 100% O2
