The SSK02 oxygen probe is used to determine the carbon level (C level) in industrial furnaces for processes such as gas carburizing, case hardening, hardening etc.. The measurement is carried out in situ.
The probe is characterized by its robustness, reliability, durability and modular design. It is therefore particularly suitable for measuring furnace atmospheres at high temperatures and high carbon levels. The measured probe voltage EMF corresponds to the Nernst voltage and can be converted into a carbon level in the connected evaluation electronics.
Before delivery, each probe is tested in a test furnace under a test atmosphere traceable to a temperature measurement. The test includes a function test and a quantitative check to determine:
- Deviation in the probe signal
- Impedance of the probe (condition of the zirconium oxide tip)
- Deviation in the temperature
- Reaction to missing reference air (tightness)
The probe is supplied with a test report.
