The Xendos 2200 paramagnetic oxygen transmitter from Servomex is the first process oxygen transmitter for the oxidation control market with multiple transmitter, single control unit capability and has been specifically designed for high performance measurements in oxidation control reactions. The system comprises an oxygen transmitter and a range of control units, providing measurement solutions for a variety of process control applications where high performance oxygen measurement is required. Typical applications include use in process plants in the chemical, industrial gas, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. For example, in many petrochemical processes oxidation reactions typically take place within a pressurised vessel at high temperatures in the presence of a catalyst. Controlling the flow rate of oxygen to processes can mean the difference between efficient conversion of the reaction components or uncontrolled oxidation and reaction runaway leading to inefficient conversion and, possibly, an explosion.

The Xendos 2200 uses patented paramagnetic technology which has been proven in the field. Oxygen is attracted to a magnetic field (“paramagnetism”), whereas most other gases are not, so the transmitter has been designed to take advantage of this paramagnetic property to obtain fast, accurate oxygen measurements. The benefits of the Xendos 2200 include its durability in aggressive industrial environments, long-term stability and reliability, consistent, reproducible measurements, lower maintenance costs and reduced downtime. The control unit, with its simple graphical user interface, can control up to six transmitters simultaneously and a full set of diagnostics information is available that can be used to assist with predictive maintenance.
