The Virap Oxygen Probe or Carbon sensor is the latest generation of in-situ oxygen sensor using the zirconia substrate. The probe has been completely redesigned, based on years of practical experience, to eliminate the problems found in other manufacturer’s Oxygen Probe.
The zirconia carbon sensor has been used for nearly three decades to control the carbon potential in many carburising applications, and more recently in other applications.
The Virap Oxygen Probe is cost effective, offering high reliability, compatibility and accuracy.
Ideal for use in carburising, carbonitriding, neutral hardening, and Endo gas generator applications.
Open electrode design resists sooting and aids in probe burn-off.
Burn-Off port as standard with no loss of insertion length
Every probe is 100% tested with certification, certificate is shipped with each probe.
High performance, low cost sensor for heat treating applications.
Response time < 1.0 second
Independent, rated, compression springs for the sensor and 4-bore tube
Interchangeable with all oxygen probes or carbon sensors
Reduces stress on the 4-bore tube, reducing the incidence of breakages
Improved electrical contact on expansion and contraction of the sheath
Comes with unconditional 12-month warranty
Improved gas flow across the sensor tip
