SIL2 Oxygen Analyser designed for Safety Critical Applications

Ntron Gas measurement Systems (Ireland) has recently launched their SILO2 oxygen analyser designed for safety critical applications.

Ntron has over 30 years of experience in supplying Oxygen Analysis based Inerting Control Systems to the Chemical and Pharmaceutical industry. The Ntron SILO2 analyser was specifically designed for OEM and end user to address the market requirements for a low cost SIL2 oxygen analyser for inertisation applications: Centrifuges, Reactors, Mills, Glove Boxes and Vent Headers.

The SILO2 Oxygen Analyser utilises two continuous self-monitoring microprocessors and the complete system (analyser and sensor) meets the requirements of IEC 61508 SIL2. The SILO2 analyser is designed for safe area installation with a single input intrinsically safe connection for a variety of hazardous area located ATEX certified Ntron oxygen sensors, via an integral galvanic isolation barrier.

The analyser incorporates an easy to read LCD display of oxygen concentration. Calibration of the analyser/ sensor combination is made easy via the user accessible Span push buttons. The analyser offers the user an analogue output 4-20 mA RS232 / RS485 and 3 configurable alarm relays.
