PBI-Dansensor supplies Oxygen Permeability Tester. PBI-Dansensor manufactures gas analysers, gas mixers, gas flow control, etc. The Oxygen Permeability Tester, OPT-5000 has been specifically developed to provide an easy and reliable testing method with an easy to operate user interface. This Oxygen Permeability Tester offers simple method to test oxygen permeability. The user interface is based upon an easy to use touch screen display. This display indicates the test cycle and the permeability rate. The OPT-5000 is ideal for the testing of both low and high permeability foils. With its broad testing range, ease of operation and automatic humidity control, the OPT-5000 Oxygen Permeability Tester is extremely versatile in application and suitability, both for advanced research in the laboratory and quality control in production settings. Using the OxMon software, base on LabVIEW programming and all measured values can be logged directly from the OPT-5000.
The Oxygen Permeability Tester features an extremely sensitive and fast responding, ceramic oxygen sensor, which measures increase of the partial pressure difference of oxygen. The test sample is affixed to a self-adhesive sample card, which when inserted into the tester, separates the upper and lower chambers. The upper chamber contains an atmosphere with a fixed and known concentration of oxygen, while the lower chamber contains an oxygen-free atmosphere. The oxygen permeability is determined by the difference between the measured oxygen concentrations in the gas stream passing through the chamber and the gas stream bypassing the chamber. The result is then calculated into ml/m2/24 hrs.
