Respirometer Micro-Oxymax

General Information A highly adaptable general purpose closed circuit respirometer with very high sensitivity. US Patent: No. 4947339 European Patent: No. 0372429 Japanese Patent: No. 2117492 The Columbus Instruments' Micro-Oxymax system is a highly adaptable general purpose closed circuit respirometer. The system monitors the concentration of gas contained within an enclosed head space into which the material being monitored is respiring. Periodic sensing of the gas concentration, along with an equally accurate measurement of the volume of the head space, allows calculations of incremental and accumulated values for consumption and production. The Micro-Oxymax patented design principle provides a sensing threshold near 2 x 10-7 liter per hour.
