Fitted with a zirconium dioxide sensor and a nondispersive infrared sensor, the MAT1500 is our number one when it comes to the range of application, performance and precision. The measurements are completed within only approx. ten seconds. As is the case with the MAT1400, highly precise results can be achieved with single measurements of oxygen concentrations thanks to the min/max detection even if only a small sample volume is available.
Because of its excellent accuracy of ±0.001 volume per cent with the lowest O2 concentrations, the MAT1400 with its zirconium dioxide sensor is primarily used to test oxygen free modified atmospheres for sterilised finished products or electronic, pharmaceutical or cosmetic products. Thanks to its wide measurement range between 0 and 100 volume per cent, it can also be used for high oxygen concentrations as required for red fresh meat. The non-dispersive infrared sensor with its wide measurement range between 0 and 50 volume per cent is suitable for most applications of carbon dioxide in modified atmospheres. Its high accuracy of ±0.5 volume per cent CO2 always ensures precise measurement results. A typical application of the MAT1500 is the control of oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration in the following products:
A comprehensive overview of typical applications of the gas analyzers of the MAT1000 series can be found in our campus article on gas analyzer applications.
