Air monitoring
Rapid, reliable and simple oxygen analysis for CEMS facilitates environmental compliance in the harshest industrial conditions
Mar 11 2025
The need for precise and reliable Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS) has never been greater as industries face ever-more-stringent environmental regulations. Advanced monitoring solutions are necessary to ensure efficiency and accountability in emission control. SETNAG’s ATK/F-EUT and S24N-Oxybox’Air oxygen analysers have been engineered to meet the stringent demands of industrial settings such as large combustion plants, waste incinerators, steel plants, power plants, and steam generators.
SETNAG’s S24N-Oxybox’Air integrates seamlessly into CEMS frameworks, delivering flexible oxygen measurement capabilities. It can analyse oxygen levels in wet and dry gases, ensuring adaptability to a wide range of process requirements. The wet gas measurement is performed through a connection at the heated hose outlet, while dry gas analysis is carried out after sample treatment. Meanwhile, SETNAG’s ATK/F-EUT provides direct oxygen measurement in wet gases adjacent to the process, eliminating the need for gas conditioning. This semi-in-situ technique ensures that the sensitive element remains protected from direct gas contact, thereby enhancing durability and measurement stability.
At the heart of these analysers is SETNAG’s innovative MicroPoas® Zirconia Sensor, which eradicates the need for a reference gas. This proprietary technology offers several advantages, including miniaturisation, autonomy from external environmental factors, and high performance. Designed for operation in harsh environments, the sensor operates efficiently under extreme temperatures and pressures while maintaining an extended lifespan. Its diffusion-based measurement principle also provides superior protection for the sensitive element, improving reliability and reducing maintenance requirements.
The S24N-Oxybox’Air offers ease of use, featuring rapid setup and minimal servicing demands, making it the perfect choice for industries that need continuous and long-term monitoring solutions. The AKT/F-EUT is also an invaluable component of CEMS, maintaining peak performance at temperatures up to 1300°C while ensuring free circulation of analysed gases. Its semi-in-situ measurement technique raises reliability while simplifying installation and maintenance operations, leading to lower cost of ownership.
SETNAG has also demonstrated expertise in developing oxygen measurement solutions tailored to waste incineration post-combustion processes, further solidifying its role in emissions control innovation. With a proven track record in power generation, district heating, industrial and domestic waste incineration, steam production, and steelworks, these analysers provide an essential toolset for industries striving to meet regulatory requirements and optimize combustion efficiency.
As industries struggle with environmental compliance and process optimisation challenges, SETNAG’s ATK/F-EUT and S24N-Oxybox’Air analysers significantly enhance CEMS technology. Their rugged design, ease of integration, and cutting-edge sensor technology make them indispensable for contemporary industrial applications, ensuring reliable, efficient, and regulatory-compliant oxygen measurement in even the most demanding conditions.
