NeoFox Sport
NeoFox Sport is available as a handheld oxygen-
sensing system with a phase fluorometer, an
onboard microprocessor with OLED display and a
battery module, or as part of the Jaz community of
stackable, modular and autonomous component
modules (limit of one sensor module per stack).
Features
NeoFox is a fluorescence-sensing detector for our optical sensors line and provides a viable alternative to
traditional chemical sensing devices. Our optical sensors consist of transducer materials, applied to the
tips of optical fibers or to substrates such as patches or cuvettes, which change optical properties in
response to specific analytes in their immediate environment.
Additional features that are available to NeoFox Sport users include:
 Battery-powered operation
 Real-time display of temperature and oxygen in various measurement units:
 Gaseous oxygen partial pressure as a percentage of 1 ATM.
 Gaseous oxygen partial pressure in Torr.
 Dissolved oxygen partial pressure in ppm (parts per million)
 Dissolved oxygen concentration in um/L (micromoles per liter)
 Data logging of temperature and oxygen readings in units listed above.
 In-field single point reset (also available on desktop NeoFox)
Oxygen Sensor Probes
The NeoFox is used with Ocean Optics’ NeoFox software and custom probes (priced separately). Ocean
Optics oxygen sensor probes are low-power, portable devices that offer high sensitivity, reversibility, and
stability. Their small size is useful for remote monitoring. What's more, the thin film used in the probe
tips consumes no oxygen, allowing for continuous contact with the sample. Ocean Optics oxygen sensors
offer other key advantages: they're ideal for viscous samples and are immune to interference caused by
pH change or from changes in ionic strength, salinity, and biofouling. The NeoFox supports the following
