In response to industry demand Cambridge Sensotec have developed the Rapidox 1100ZF-PFC Zirconia Oxygen Analyser, the company’s first instrument capable of proportional flow control.
This feature enables the control of oxygen in inert gas blanketing applications, for example inside an oven or similar equipment, via feedback between the analyser and valve.
Nitrogen, or other inert gases, are used within blanketing applications to protect against volatile substances, or substances that are prone to oxidation. Humid air in the head space of the container is replaced by the inert gas to secure against spoilage, combustion or explosion.
Wastage efficiency and consistency are key factors throughout the process, alongside the necessity to maintain stable inert gas levels. Closed loop process controls systems help to control the variable factors that can have an adverse effect on the process.
