MEASURES CLOSER TO THE FLAME WHILE MAINTAINING INTRINSIC SAFETY
Traditional in situ oxygen flue gas analyzers utilize
zirconium oxide sensors to measure excess oxygen in
process flue gas. These zirconium oxide sensors use a
principle of operation based on the Nernst equation. This
principle requires that the sensor cell be maintained at a
high operating temperature using a heater that is powered
via the analyzer’s electronics.
Many operators of combustion processes have applications
that involve hazardous gases in the process itself or
in the ambient gases in the area where the analyzer’s
electronics are installed. These operators are often
concerned that the cell heater can serve as an ignition
source to these hazardous gases inside the process or
that the electronics can provide ignition to hazardous
process or ambient gases that may be present. As a
result of these concerns, these users must purchase
oxygen analyzers with costly protection features.
In addition, traditional in situ oxygen analyzers use
metallic alloys that are also limited to temperatures in the
range of 701°C (1300°F). This process temperature
limitation prohibits the analyzer from being inserted close
to the actual combustion process. Many operators prefer
to measure flue gas oxygen close to the furnace or radiant
section for a more representative oxygen measurement.
Improved analyzer accuracy often results in significant fuel
savings or improved process throughput.
The Model 5081FG Two-Wire In Situ Oxygen Analyzer
utilizes a zirconium oxide sensor to measure excess
oxygen in combustion processes. The cost-effective
design enables it to accurately measure excess oxygen in
process temperatures ranging from 550° to 1400°C (1022°
to 2550°F). In addition, the Model 5081FG is designed
so that both its oxygen probe and the electronics are
intrinsically safe without requiring costly design modifications
such as flame arrestors. The oxygen probe is
constructed of ceramic materials capable of withstanding
high process temperatures. Also, the analyzer eliminates
the use of the cell heater, using the higher process
temperatures to heat the zirconium oxide sensor cell to
the temperature required by the Nernst equation principle
of operation.
The Model 5081FG analyzer’s electronics are intrinsically
safe, powered by the 4-20 mA signal wires. In addition,
the electronics permit configuration, operation and
diagnostics with an easy-to-use hand-held Infrared
Remote Control (IRC). Only one IRC is required to
communicate with any number of Model 5081FG Two-Wire
In Situ Oxygen Analyzers at the user’s location.
Communication with any specific Model 5081FG Analyzer
is accomplished by aiming the IRC beam directly at the
electronics and entering its factory or user ID number at
the prompt. This instrument can also communicate over
the 4-20 mA signal wires with a HART® communicator or
Emerson Process Management AMS software.

MODEL 5081FG OPERATOR INTERFACE
The Model 5081FG Oxygen Two-Wire In Situ Analyzer
is also an Emerson Process Management SMART
instrument. Operators can communicate with the Model
5081FG Analyzer using the Model 375 HART® Communicator
and any other host that supports HART communication
protocol such as Emerson Process Management's
AMS system. Using AMS, operators may diagnose and
communicate with the Model 5081FG Analyzer from a
centrally located PC, which may also be communicating
with all HART-compatible instruments within the
operator’s plant.
CALIBRATION CHECK CAPABILITY
The Model 5081FG offers the ability to flow calibration
gases to the probe for calibration check. This feature
helps ensure that your Model 5081FG analyzer is
performing within calibration and its specifications,
providing accurate oxygen flue gas measurements to help
you save fuel or improve process throughput.
