This sensor can be used to make measurements of the level of free oxygen in air or dissolved oxygen in water. The free oxygen in air mode is used to measure changes in oxygen levels during combustion or in reactions that produce oxygen (hydrogen peroxide decomposition). The dissolved and free oxygen modes are very useful in the study of photosynthesis. The oxygen sensor is designed for use both in the school laboratory and in the field. It employs easy-to-use polarographic (Clark) technology and replaceable membranes are available for it. The electrode itself is constructed of Delrin® for durability. With its integral thermistor, it provides dependable temperature-compensated measurements. The thermistor is housed in stainless steel and sealed on the electrode’s outer wall providing fast, accurate readings. This sensor can be used for temperature measurements in solids, liquids or gases.
