Description
For monitoring & controlling Oxygen activity in unknown atmospheres ( 100% to sub
ppm levels ) Zirconia ( ZrO2 ) is unparalleled in terms of durability & reliability.
FYKAYS offer two distinct types of IN-SITU PROBES
- Reaction Bonded: (RB) unsheathed probes
- Fusion bonded: (FB) sheathed probes
Reaction bonded probes, which can be used without external sheathing and the associated
assembly and maintenance problems make use of a patented process in which a ZrO2
thimble or pellet is bonded onto an Al2O3 tube by reaction through a platinum washer.Fusion
bonded sensors on the other hand use sintered ZrO2 pellet cemented and fused to
the Alumina tube.
Wider Applications
Length of Probes
Standard lengths available are 150, 300, 600, 900, 100, 1200 and 1500 mm. Longer
lengths up to 2500 mm available on special request.
Thermocouple Specifications:
For RB sensors the thermocouples are normally type 'R' or 'S' (Pt.Pt.Rh 13 % or
Pt.Pt.Rh 10 %) For FB sensors the choice is extended to 'K' type (chromel-alumel),
for lower temperature applications.
For extra high temperatures probes are supplied with 'B' type (Pt.Rh 6% - Pt.Rh
30 %) thermocouples (RB sensors only)
