You have chosen a new, innovative technology for measuring oxygen.
The OXY-1 ST (Trace) is a compact fiber optic oxygen meter. It is based on a novel
technology, which creates very stable, internally referenced measured values. This allows a
more flexible use of oxygen sensors in various fields of interest.
Optical oxygen sensors (also called optrodes) have several important features:
They are small.
Their signal does not depend on the flow rate of the sample.
They can be physically divided from the measuring system which allows a non-
invasive measurement.
They can be used in disposables.
Microsensors allow measurements with high spatial resolution whenever this is
required.
Therefore, they are ideally suited for the examination of small sample volumes, for highly
parallelized measurements in disposables, and for biotechnological applications. A set of
different oxygen mini- and microsensors, flow-through cells and non-invasive sensors is
available to make sure you have the sensor which matches your application.
Please feel free to contact our service team to find the best solution for your application.
