When installing sensors in oxygen enriched environments, it is important to ensure that the pressure sensor is cleaned to a recognized standard to prevent combustion.
Pressure Transducers for Oxygen
In oxygen systems, even trace levels of contaminants can significantly increase the risk of fire or explosion due to oxygen’s reactive nature. Pressure transducers installed in these environments must be cleaned to internationally recognized standards to guarantee safe equipment performance and regulatory compliance. When installing oxygen cleaned pressure sensors in oxygen-enriched environments, it is important to ensure that the sensor is cleaned to a recognized standard to prevent combustion. Oxygen cleaning removes contaminates such as hydrocarbons (oils and greases), lint, dirt and more. Core Sensors offers oxygen cleaning services on nearly all of its sensor products and can meet or exceed the following standards:
- Praxair GS-38
- CGA G-4.1
- Mil Std 1330-D
- ASTM G93 Test I&II
- SAE ARP 1176
All oxygen cleaned pressure sensors are shipped in a vacuumed sealed bag to preserve cleanliness until installation that should not be opened until the sensor is ready for install.
Typical Applications for Oxygen-cleaned Pressure Sensors
Oxygen cleaned pressure transducers are commonly used in:
- Ambulance onboard oxygen systems
- Medical oxygen supply lines and storage tank level monitoring
- Industrial oxygen gas distribution
- Laboratory and research facilities
