Introduction
EVITA
®
OXY sensors are used for measuring
the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water
– especially in controlling and monitoring aeration
processes in wastewater treatment plants, but also
in applications such as fi sh frarms.
EVITA
®
OXY consists of an OXY 1100 sensor, an
OXY 4100 transmitter and a USC Universal Signal
Converter.
There are two versions of the transmitter – a ball
fl oat version, OXY 4100, and a probe version, OXY
4150/3150. The operating principle is identical for
both versions.
There are three versions of the USC - a USC 5000
basic version, and a USC 6000 with added features,
both point to point. A USC 7000 with HART
®
multidrop functionality enabling up to 15 transmitters
on only two wires.
The EVITA
®
OXY 1100 sensor is the heart of
the oxygen meter. The transmitter converts the
measurements by the sensor into a current signal
and at the same time also performs the necessary
calculations/corrections. The signal converter is the
display and programming unit and offers additional
outputs.
