    Int. Approved Introduction Sensor Measurement Techniques The Analox Sub Mk III F is an atmosphere monitoring system capable of measuring oxygen (O carbon dioxide (CO ) and pressure (depth). Temperature and humidity sensors may optionally be added. An optional controller module may also be added to provide oxygen injection to maintain oxygen levels at pre-set levels.

    The only connection required is at the time of calibration via Analox supplied flow adaptors and tubing. Special versions of REM1 and REM2 are designed for mounting external to a chamber and will require a sample flow with an in-line flowmeter.
  • Page 31 The REM3 oxygen injection controllers provide a powered 24 VDC output capable of operating an injection solenoid valve. Analox do not normally supply the injection valve, although are happy to be provide some advice if asked. It is vitally important that the injection valve and other associated fittings (regulators, pipework etc.) are cleaned for oxygen service.

    It is highly dangerous to use an oxygen control system without an independent monitoring system. It is not envisaged that anyone will use an Analox oxygen controller in the absence of another monitoring system, whether that be supplied by Analox or anyone else.
  • Page 48 User Manual Int. Approved Analox recommend that the electrical output to the injection solenoid is interlocked with an alarm from the monitoring system. By simply wiring a ‘high oxygen’ alarm contact in series with the injection valve, the user can prevent incorrect injection of oxygen to the chamber.
