1. Operational principles

The purpose of ECONOX CarboProbe oxygen sensors is to measure and regulate

atmospheres. ECONOX uses two different types of electrolyte made of ZrO

(zirconium

oxide) for its oxygen sensors:

1. A ball made of ZrO

, an ECONOX-patented system, which may only be obtained from

ECONOX. The ball is used in the CarboProbe ZI pro sensor.

2. A C-700 ZrO

electrolyte.

This is used in the CarboProbe ZS, HT, CP and LTsensors.

An oxygen probe works by comparing the oxygen level in the kiln with the oxygen level

inside the alumina tube. This is why the air inside the tube must always be renewed. If the

temperature of the zirconia tip is over about 700 °C, it produces an electrical voltage. The

less oxygen in the kiln, the bigger the electrical voltage, so the voltage can be used as a

guide to the oxygen level.

There is no safety hazard - the maximum a probe can produce is less than a

battery!
