Principle of Operation
The GPR-2800 IS/1800 IS Oxygen Transmitter incorporates a variety of advanced galvanic fuel cell type
oxygen sensors. These sensors are very specific to oxygen and generate an electrical signal proportional to
the amount of oxygen present in a gas stream. The selection of particular type of sensor depends on the
composition of the sample gas stream. Consult the factory for recommendation.
The transmitter is configured in two sections. The signal processing electronics and sensor are housed in a
general purpose NEMA 4X rated enclosure. The terminals for incoming power, signal output and intrinsic
safety barriers are mounted on a PCB housed in an explosion proof enclosure.
The two sets of electronics are interconnected using an explosion proof Y-fitting, explosion proof packing
fiber and sealing cement – see Appendix A. Once connected, the intrinsic safety barriers limit the amount of
power that flows to and from the signal processing electronics effectively preventing an explosive condition.
The analyzer design conforms to the ATEX directive for equipment as intrinsically safe and has been
approved by an independent body:
The analyzer carries the following area classification
