Select location
The location of the transmitter in the stack or flue is most important for maximum
accuracy in the oxygen analyzing process.
Procedure
1. Position the transmitter so that the gas it measures is representative of the process.
2. Check the flue or stack holes for air leakage. Make any necessary repairs or install
3. Ensure that the area is clear of internal and external obstructions that will interfere

You will obtain best results by positioning the transmitter near the center of the
duct (40 to 60 percent insertion). Longer ducts may require several transmitter
units since the O
can vary due to stratification. A point too near the wall of the duct

or the inside radius of a bend may not provide a representative sample because of
the very low flow conditions. Select the sensing point so the process gas
temperature falls within a range of 32 to 1300 °F (0 to 704 °C).

The ambient temperature of the electronics housing must not exceed 150 °F
(70 °C). For higher ambient temperature, Emerson recommends the remote
mounted electronics option.
Note
In highly abrasive applications, rotate the shield 90 degrees at normal service
intervals to present a new wear surface to the abrasive flow stream.

Holes and leakage substantially affect the accuracy of the oxygen reading.

clearance for removal of the transmitter.
CAUTION
Damage to the unit may result.
Do not allow the temperature of the transmitter electronics to exceed 185 °F (85
