NeoFox® Sport Phase Measurement Systems
Say Goodbye to Limitations and Hello to NeoFox Sport
This portable, handheld optical oxygen sensor is designed specifically for measuring dissolved and gaseous oxygen pressure in a variety of media. The NeoFox Sport sensor uses a proprietary sol-gel coating that is embedded with an oxygen indicator and can be applied to patches or probes. These coating formulations are available for general laboratory use, high-sensitivity applications and hydrocarbon-rich sample environments.
NeoFox Sport is a fluorescence-based optical oxygen sensing system that includes a phase fluorometer, an onboard microprocessor with low-power OLED display, a user interface and a battery pack for convenient field use. The NeoFox Sport, combined with a probe or patch based sensor, is the perfect solution for field portable oxygen sensing. Probes, patches and accessories are priced separately.
Fully configured systems start at under $4,000.
The user interface allows you to set single- or multi-point calibration and display oxygen readings in percent of oxygen, partial pressure, moles per liter and more.
Unlike polarographic and galvanic oxygen meters, the NeoFox Sport sensor is immune to environmental changes in pH, salinity and ionic strength. Plus, NeoFox Sport eliminates the need for frequent calibration.
