Zirconia Oxygen Analyzer: Intelligent Solution for Industrial Combustion Monitoring

Release time: 2025-08-27


In high energy-consuming industries such as steel smelting and power generation, how can the oxygen content during the combustion process be accurately monitored? This not only relates to energy utilization efficiency but also directly affects the environmental compliance and production costs of enterprises. The zirconia oxygen analyzer developed by Anhui Tianfen Instrument Co., Ltd. is becoming the preferred equipment for many industrial enterprises to optimize combustion control due to its excellent performance.

Core Advantages of Zirconia Technology

The zirconia oxygen analyzer uses the solid electrolyte principle, utilizing the conductive properties of oxygen ions in zirconia material at high temperatures to achieve precise measurement. Compared with traditional magnetic oxygen analyzers or paramagnetic oxygen analyzers, zirconia technology has three significant advantages: first, fast response speed, reaching 90% of the measurement value within 5 seconds after connecting to standard gas; second, a wide measurement range, with a default range of 0.01%-25% covering most industrial application scenarios; third, compact structure, with a direct insertion design enabling in-situ measurement, eliminating the need for complex sampling pretreatment systems.

Anhui Tianfen's zirconia analyzer also integrates an intelligent transmitter module, equipped with an LCD Chinese operation interface, supports 485 communication protocol, outputs standard 4~20mA signals, and controls power below 150W, truly achieving the unification of intelligent measurement and easy operation.

Analysis of Multi-Industry Application Scenarios

From hot blast stoves in steel mills to heating boilers in chemical plants, from waste incineration power generation to process gas monitoring in the pharmaceutical industry, the application of zirconia oxygen analyzers covers almost all industrial fields requiring combustion control. In the steel industry, the TFYHG5100 series is specially designed for steel mill hot blast stoves, resistant to direct impact from high-temperature flue gas; in the petrochemical field, the TFEX-8 series explosion-proof detector has obtained relevant certifications and can be safely used in places with explosion risks.

Particularly noteworthy is the TFYHG5100 model, which uses a 316L corrosion-resistant protective tube, specially developed for highly corrosive environments such as sulfuric acid boilers; the TFYHG5100CS is equipped with automatic calibration and purging functions, greatly reducing maintenance frequency for power plant boiler applications. For the special needs of different industries, Anhui Tianfen Instrument offers multiple probe insertion depths ranging from 200mm to 1200mm, and flange specifications can also be customized as required.

User Pain Points and Innovative Solutions

In practical applications, industrial enterprises often face three major pain points: high-temperature flue gas damaging probes, corrosive media shortening lifespan, and complex working conditions affecting measurement accuracy. Anhui Tianfen Instrument effectively solves these problems through three technological innovations: adopting gradient dense zirconia ceramic technology to maintain probe stability at 650°C high temperature; developing multi-layer composite protective coatings to significantly enhance durability in corrosive environments containing sulfur and chlorine; introducing temperature compensation algorithms and automatic calibration functions to ensure measurement accuracy under different pressure and flow conditions.

For the large temperature difference changes during the boiler startup phase in the power industry, the TFYHG series adopts a special thermal shock resistance design; the TFZRO2 model customized for hazardous waste incineration industry strengthens dust erosion resistance, with a service life 1.5 times that of similar products. These targeted designs make Tianfen Instrument's products perform excellently in practical applications, helping users achieve significant energy savings, with some cases showing fuel consumption reductions of 3%-8%.

EXNFZRO®2 Explosion-proof Zirconia Oxygen Analyzer Significance of Measuring Oxygen Content with Zirconia Analyzer Flue gas oxygen content is one of the important monitoring parameters for boiler operation and an important basis for reflecting the completeness of combustion equipment and boiler operation. Its value is related to factors such as boiler structure, type and nature of fuel, boiler load, operating air supply conditions, and equipment sealing conditions. The smaller the oxygen content, i.e., the smaller the excess air coefficient, the more it indicates increased heat loss due to incomplete chemical combustion and mechanical incomplete combustion; the larger the oxygen content, i.e., the larger the excess air coefficient, the more it indicates excessive air supply. Excess air causes a drop in furnace temperature, which not only affects combustion but also carries away a large amount of heat and dust, increasing the calculated concentration of pollutant emissions. At the same time, a large air volume also increases the power consumption of flue gas exhaust. Controlling flue gas oxygen content is very important for controlling the combustion process and achieving safe, efficient, and low-pollution emissions. Application Scope The zirconia oxygen analyzer is an instrument used to monitor and control the oxygen concentration in combustion gases, boilers, and industrial furnaces. It is widely used in coal-fired power plants, gas boilers, waste incineration boilers, hazardous waste disposal incinerators, petrochemical cracking furnaces, metallurgical industry blast furnace hot blast stoves, oxygen-enriched combustion air pipelines, sintering furnaces, heating furnaces, heat treatment furnaces, metal material annealing furnaces, air separation oxygen production, food industry, cement kilns in the building materials industry, glass kilns, inert gas protection furnaces in the semiconductor industry, electrode material production furnaces in the lithium battery industry, and waste lithium battery recycling. It helps save energy and can also reduce CO2, SOX, and NOx emissions by controlling complete combustion, contributing to environmental protection, preventing global warming, and reducing air pollution.
