 Technology Profile

Title:

Low Cost Oxygen Monitor

Value Proposition:

Low Cost Oxygen Monitor (LCOM) using LSM-11 Bousch Lambda sensor and microcontroller for Oxygen monitoring in oil fired boilers. The system is useful for measuring the oxygen percentage in stack gas monitoring (upto 350 deg C) which in turn gives combustion efficiency of oil fired boilers.

Summary Application:

Useful in medium and large scale industries and Commercial establishments such as IT parks where the no. of  monitoring nodes can be more than 256 and can be used to reduce the energy consumption and evaluation of energy efficient equipments.

Advantages:
  • Can be used to monitor the Stack Gas (temperature below 350°C). 
  • Cost effective solution.
  • Can be used for other applications and other electro chemical sensors
