CERAGOLD Probe
Designed for: HIGH temperature and HIGH carbon applications
Driven by a concern for the above facts and a desire to improve the Gold Probe performance, SSi has recently introduced the industries' first "third generation" oxygen probe...CERAGOLD PROBE. We are successfully applying cermet coating techniques to extend probe sheath life and to reduce the catalysis effect with methane that is present with other probe alloy sheaths currently used. This design feature, along with the unique anode contact configuration is the subject of a recently awarded U.S. patent.
Heat treaters operating equipment at elevated temperatures (>1750° F) and carbon potential (>1.25 % C) will experience the most significant gain in probe life. The cermet sheath treatment creates a tenacious, un-penetrable layer to protect all exposed surfaces of the probe sheath from the carburizing atmosphere. Reducing the amount of nickel exposed at the surface reduces soot formation and virtually eliminates high temperature corrosion (green rot).
CERAGOLD'S "on the fly" burnoff capability is an additional feature which eliminates nagging probe accuracy and response problems. CERAGOLD is designed with a 1/2" pipe sheath, not 3/4" like other probes. This is intentional because the 1/2" size requires much lower volumes of burnoff air to reach the probe electrode tip. This feature greatly contributes to rapid, efficient probe burnoff and hence to longer term probe accuracy and process consistency.

BAZOOKA Probe
Designed for Endothermic Generators
Super Systems Inc. offers their most recent innovation with respect to measuring the atmosphere output from an endothermic generator. The " BAZOOKA " fits through the side of the generator, features it's own integral sample well, fits easily into a standard 1 1/4" hole. Designed with the ability to burn-off, the BAZOOKA should be the next probe to control your generator.
- Specifically designed to control endothermic generators
- Used on rotary and muffle furnaces
- Installed in combustion chamber
- Integral sample well
- Operates at 1500° - 1600°F (816°-871°C) for optimum life.
HP2000 Self-Heated Gold Probe
Why an HP2000 Self-heated oxygen sensor?
There are certain applications where an in situ oxygen probe is impractical. For those applications, Super Systems Inc. recommends the HP2000 self-heated oxygen probe. This system supplies the temperature required to make an oxygen probe function. For some applications such as a multi-tube generator, or a rotary retort furnace, this probe will allow you to extract a continuous sample of the atmosphere stream and pass it by a standard oxygen probe.
Applications:
Rotary Furnaces
- Sample line extended into furnace beyond quench chute
- Opposite-end from atmosphere introduction
- Adequate filter system
- Conservative addition of enriching gas
Modular Endothermic Generator
- Manifold "sample" lines
- Allow for condensation drip
- Manual "shut-off" valves are suggested
Sintering/Muffle Furnaces
- No need for high-temperature probes
- Fixed sample lines
- Use natural gas as oxygen "getter"
Low-Temperature Applications
- Nitrogen-based low temperature, Miscellaneous protective atmospheres
- % Oxygen in residual combustion gases
