Description

This section describes the components of the oxygen transmitter. The transmitter consists
of the oxygen detector, amplifier, and junction box.

Figure 1: Oxygen Transmitter Component Location

Oxygen Detector

The oxygen detector includes the oxygen sensor, detector housing, and detector leads.

Oxygen Sensor

The oxygen sensor is encapsulated within the detector housing. Through a series of
chemical and electronic reactions, the sensor produces an electrical output that is
proportional to the detection range of the transmitter.

Detector Housing

The oxygen sensor is encapsulated within the detector housing. Mounting threads
(3/4 in. NPT) at the top of the detector housing allow you to mount the oxygen detector
into the bottom conduit hub of the junction box.

Detector Leads

Two color-coded leads extend from the top of the detector. The leads allow you to connect
the oxygen detector to the amplifier.
