Gastec O2-208G Oxygen Sensor

The Gastec O2-208G Oxygen Sensor operates on a proven galvanic cell principle, functioning as a self-powered electrochemical transducer that produces a voltage proportional to the concentration of oxygen present. This technology is favored in industrial settings because it does not require external power to react to gas presence, ensuring continuous monitoring even in critical safety scenarios.

This sensor is specifically tailored for the GOC-100 series gas monitors. Its design focuses on stability and longevity, minimizing the drift often associated with lower-quality electrochemical cells. By maintaining a consistent output, the Gastec O2-208G Oxygen Sensor allows procurement and safety officers to reduce downtime and ensure that gas detection equipment remains compliant with strict industrial safety standards

Features

  • Galvanic Cell Technology: Provides a reliable, self-generating signal that is active the moment it is exposed to oxygen.
  • Ultra-Lightweight: At just 4g, it is designed for “wear-and-forget” personal safety devices that do not hinder the user.
  • Rapid Response: Features a fast T_{90} response time, ensuring immediate alerts if oxygen levels drop below safe thresholds (typically 18% or 19.5%).
  • High Stability: Engineered to resist baseline drift caused by changes in atmospheric pressure and temperature during a work shift.
  • Instant Readiness: Requires no polarization or lengthy warm-up period; it is ready for safety checks immediately upon powering up the monitor.

Applications

The Gastec O2-208G Oxygen Sensor is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including:

  • Confined space entry monitoring in oil and gas facilities.
  • Atmospheric safety checks in chemical processing plants.
  • Oxygen level surveillance in pharmaceutical cleanrooms and laboratories.
  • Integration into portable gas detectors for field utility workers.
  • Industrial health and safety monitoring in warehouses and production areas.
