Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Bazooka Probe™ for your atmosphere control applications.
The Bazooka Probe™ represents a dramatic change in sampling oxygen sensor technology. It
has been designed primarily for use in measuring systems as applied to endothermic
generators, but is also useful in applications where high temperatures may have adverse
effects on both life and performance, such as sintering.
The Bazooka Probe™ is derived from the original Gold Probe™ with the same patented
electrode construction. It is the product of a team of design and application engineers, each
with over twenty years of atmosphere control experience. The SSi engineering team has long
recognized that the sensor is the most critical component in the atmosphere control system
and has traditionally been the weakest link. Now, reliability, repeatability, and accuracy are
assured with the inclusion of the Bazooka Probe™.
WARNING!
Follow all proper safety precautions. Use proper eye protection and hand protection at all
times.
Features
The Bazooka Probe™ channels a small sample to the patented probe measuring point. From
there, the sample enters an integral micro isolating well which then vents the sample to the
combustion chamber of the generator, or the interior hot wall, in the case of furnaces.
There is no cool area where soot can be deposited.
There is a tiny buffering volume separating the probe from the sample exit, so response is fast.
Flow restriction is negligible, so a sampling pump is not usually necessary.
See the Warranty section for more information on rebuild and warranty options.
The Bazooka is a direct replacement for most existing sensors.
The 1” NPT sealing gland is easily plumbed into existing installations.
