The High Concentration O3 Meter are available in different optical path lengths to accommodate an extremely wide range of ozone tests, covering more than 8 orders of magnitude. In addition, the 106-H is measured online through a path designed to allow pressurized flow with the ozone generator.
A high concentration O3 (ozone) meter is a specialized instrument designed to accurately measure ozone levels in environments where concentrations are significantly higher than typical atmospheric levels. Ozone meters are essential for ensuring safety in industrial, laboratory, and environmental settings where ozone may be produced or used. Here are some key aspects of a high concentration O3 meter:
Detection Principle:
Electrochemical Sensor: Most ozone meters use an electrochemical sensor to detect ozone. These sensors operate by measuring the current generated when ozone molecules react with an electrolyte solution inside the sensor.
UV Absorption: Some meters use UV absorption to measure ozone concentrations. In this method, ozone absorbs UV light at specific wavelengths, and the amount of absorbed light is used to determine the ozone concentration.
Measurement Range:
A high concentration ozone meter is designed to measure ozone levels in a range significantly higher than what is typically found in the atmosphere.
Typical measurement ranges for high concentration ozone meters can vary but often extend from several ppm (parts per million) to several percentage levels of ozone.
Accuracy and Precision:
High accuracy and precision are essential for reliable ozone measurements, especially at elevated concentrations.
Calibration and regular maintenance are necessary to ensure accuracy and consistency over time.
Response Time:
The response time of the meter, or how quickly it registers changes in ozone levels, is crucial, particularly in dynamic environments.
Response times can vary depending on the sensor technology and the design of the meter.
Display and Data Logging:
A high concentration ozone meter typically features a digital display showing real-time ozone levels.
Some meters offer data logging capabilities to record ozone levels over time for further analysis and documentation.
