There are two major types of oxygen analyzers found in the aluminum industry: extractive and in-situ sensors.

Typically used in a coal-fired power boiler, the high temperature, in-situ oxygen sensor is generally installed in the boiler water-wall, above the nose arch and above each of the burner banks.

With the harsh atmosphere typical of the Incinerators and Process Heaters, an alumina protective outer sheath is recommended for higher temperature applications.

The UPC-Marathon "SureBurn" Combustion Optimization System completes the combustion cycle by maintaining the proper excess oxygen level required

Specifically designed for the harsh environment within glass and ceramics furnaces, the Alumina protection tube protects the in-situ oxygen sensor from the silica wash.
