The Sensors Division of Ocean Optics extended the NeoFox family of optical oxygen sensors with the NeoFox Sport. This portable, handheld optical oxygen sensor is designed specifically for measuring dissolved and gaseous oxygen pressure in a multitude of media. Its sensor makes use of a proprietary sol-gel coating that is embedded with an oxygen indicator that can be applied to patches or probes. These coating formulations are available for general laboratory use, high-sensitivity applications and hydrocarbon-rich sample environments.
The sensor’s design makes it a truly handheld, portable and simple-to-use tool for the lab, field and in industrial environments. The device features microprocessor-based electronics, onboard data logging a simplified data display and USB, Analog and RS-232 connectivity for interfacing with a PC.
