THE LATEST BREAKTHROUGH FOR
COMBUSTION FLUE GAS ANALYSIS
The Oxymitter In Situ Oxygen Transmitter was the world’s
rst in situ, zirconium oxide-based oxygen transmitter for
ue gas measurement. These oxygen measurements can
be used in a control system or by a boiler operator to ne
tune burner fuel/air ratios for maximum efciency. Ideal for:
•
• process heaters • reheat furnaces
Emerson is the leader in oxygen ue gas analyzer technol-
ogy. Our in situ, zirconium oxide oxygen analyzers have
long been established as industry standards. We’ve combined our expertise with the latest Rosemount transmitter
technology to create a truly
revolutionary package – the Oxymitter.
The Oxymitter integrates an oxygen probe and eld
electronics into a single, compact package. The probe
inserts directly into a ue gas duct to measure oxygen in
combustion processes. No sampling system is required.
A NEMA 4X, IP 66 Rosemount transmitter housing mounts
directly to the probe and contains the transmitter’s
electronics, replacing common stand-alone eld
electronics. This integrated design minimizes the costs of
installing separate probe cable, conduit and electronics.

Instrument technicians can interface with the Oxymitter
from the control room or any location where the transmitter’s signal wires terminate. Service diagnostics and
calibrations can be performed remotely with a HART
hand-held communicator or a personal computer equipped
with AMS.
The Oxymitter is fully eld-repairable. The probe’s design
provides convenient access to internal probe components
so technicians can service the unit in house. The cell and
heater/thermocouple are fully eld-replaceable. The
Oxymitter contains no potentiometer adjustments or
jumpers.
The Oxymitter In Situ Oxygen Transmitter operates at
process temperatures up to 1300°F (700°C), providing a
fast response with high accuracy and reliability. Available
lengths from 18 inches to 18 feet.
Optional accessories for the Oxymitter include:
– auto calibration gas sequencer
– remote, loop-powered Vacuum Fluorescent display

– high temperature accessories for temperatures
up to 1832°F (1000°C)

Advanced Features
Automatic Calibration - available with Oxymitter
or Xi electronics
Plant personnel often ask how frequently an oxygen
analyzer requires calibration. The answer is very
application-dependent based upon the fuels being burned,
normal levels of oxygen and the sulfur content in the ue
gases. The X-STREAM Xi addresses this concern by
providing an on-line diagnostic that determines when
a calibration should be conducted, eliminating many
unneeded calibrations and the technician and gas
resources they consume. The X-STREAM electronics has
an on-line impedance measurement for the sensing cell.
Oxymitter or Xi Enhanced
Interface and Advanced
Feature Electronics
Oxymitter
This feature can trigger a fully automatic calibration by
sequencing solenoids to introduce calibration gases to the
sensing cell. The Single Probe Sequencer (SPS) switches
CAL gases to a single probe, while a Multi-Probe
Sequencer (IMPS) can handle 1 to 4 probes. Many
needless calibrations based on “time in service” are
eliminated. A contact closure noties the control room
when a calibration is taking place. The oxygen output
signal can be held at its last value, or released during
calibration. The X-STREAM can also initiate calibrations
by traditional methods:
• Contact closure from the user’s control room
• Time since last calibration feature – established by
the autocalibration system
• Xi enhanced interface
• HART/AMS

Extended Process Temperature Range to
800°C (1562°F)
The X-STREAM oxygen analyzer employs a heater and
thermocouple to maintain a temperature setpoint at 736°C
(1357°F). Temperature control is maintained within ±1°C
to process temperatures of about 705°C (1300°F). This is
satisfactory for most applications, but excursions to higher
temperatures can occur in many processes. In these
instances, the heater is turned off and the process
temperature is utilized to heat the sensing cell.
The oxygen reading is adjusted immediately to
compensate for the varying process temperatures. It
should be noted that cell life will be reduced by
continuous operation at temperatures above 705°C
(1300°F). If process temperatures are expected to
continuously be above 705°C, we recommend the use of
a bypass or probe mounting jacket accessory (see page
10).
Stoichiometer
Process upsets can sometimes cause a combustion
process to go into substoichiometric or reducing conditions. The oxygen readings from one or more probes may
decline all the way to zero. The stoichiometer cell will
measure the amount of oxygen deciency during these
reducing conditions. The trends in your DCS can be set
up for a lower range limit of -1 or -2% oxygen to depict the
level of oxygen deciency.
The operator can see if his control actions to recover are
having the desired effect. These types of events do not
occur frequently, but knowing the parameters of the
situation prevents overcorrecting while coming out of the
reducing condition.

Typical DCS Trend During a Reducing Process
Event
Programmable Reference
The zirconium oxide sensing technology has historically
measured process oxygen by using ambient or instrument
air as a reference (20.95% oxygen). The sensor develops
most of its signal at the low oxygen levels typically found
in combustion ue gases (2-4% oxygen) and is most
accurate at these levels. When measuring at levels
near ambient, however, the sensor develops only a few
millivolts of signal and accuracy degrades.
The programmable reference feature permits the user
to use a bottled reference gas of low oxygen value (.4%
oxygen recommended). When measuring at or near 21%
oxygen, a strong negative oxygen signal results with much
improved accuracy. A bottle of reference gas typically lasts
about a month at the low ows required.
DCS Trend With X-STREAM Stoichiometer Feature
Typical applications include:
Flue Gas Recirculation – controlling the mixing of ue
gases into the burner windbox prior to the burner to reduce
NOx emissions.
Moisture Monitoring – measuring the amount of moisture
coming off of industrial dryers by noting the dilution effect
water vapor has on the normal 20.95% ambient drying air.
Enriched Oxygen Combustion – Pure oxygen is
sometimes mixed in with the combustion air to increase
heat at the ame. This is used in steel and other
metals reduction processes and also in some catalyst
regenerators.
