Chapter 1. Features and Capabilities

1.1 Introduction
The oxy.IQ Panametrics Oxygen Transmitter (see Figure 1 below) is a
highly reliable and cost-effective two-wire, loop-powered transmitter
with a linearized 4 to 20 mA output. It measures oxygen content in
ten ppm ranges (10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 and 10000
ppm) and eight percentage ranges (1, 2, 5, 10, 21, 25, 50 and 100%). All
ranges are user-selectable. This compact transmitter uses proven
sensor technology to accurately measure oxygen content in a variety
of gases, even in hazardous (classified) locations.

1.2 Hazardous Location Certifications

When equipped with an optional Zener barrier or galvanic isolator,
the oxy.IQ can be mounted in a hazardous (classified) location. The
oxy.IQ with Intrinsically Safe option is certified to USA, Canadian,
ATEX, and international IECEx IS requirements. The standard oxy.IQ
is certified to USA, Canadian, EU ATEX and International IECEx
Div2/Zone 2
Non-Incendive requirements.
1.3 Applications
Some typical applications for the oxy.IQ Panametrics oxygen
transmitter include the following:
• Glove box purge and leak detection

• Natural gas

• Semiconductor wafer machines

• Coating process machines

• Membrane air separators

• Inert welding gases

• Pure gaseous hydrocarbon streams

• Process monitoring of gaseous monomers

• Heat treating and bright annealing

1.4 Features
The oxy.IQ oxygen sensor uses an advanced galvanic fuel cell that
provides superior performance, accuracy, stability and long life. The
cell’s innovative design eliminates the potential for negative signal
output and reduces sources of contamination.
The cell is unaffected by other background gases or hydrocarbons
and is compatible with acidic gases (OX-2 and OX-4 cells). Recovery
from air at low ppm levels takes just a few minutes. Because the cell
is self-contained, minimal maintenance is required. There is no
electrolyte to change and no electrodes to clean.
The oxy.IQ offers the following features:
• Two-wire, loop-powered, 4 to 20 mA transmitter

• Display with keypad

• Intrinsically-safe option

• Proven galvanic fuel cell O2 sensor technology

• User-selectable ranges for ppm and percent oxygen

• User-friendly and intuitive user interface with diagnostics

• Microprocessor-based, all-digital technology for reliable

operation
• Low maintenance, economical and compact

• Sensor failure output error

• Sensor lifetime indication

• NAMUR error indication
