ETS-Lindgren's Oxygen Monitoring System (OMS) is a sample draw monitoring system that alerts and alarms when oxygen levels fall below safe limits for human health.
ETS-Lindgren's Oxygen Monitoring System (OMS) is a sample draw monitoring system that alerts and alarms when oxygen levels fall below safe limits for human health. Under normal conditions, the air we breathe contains an oxygen concentration of 20.9%. Anything less than 19.5% is considered a health hazard. The OMS monitors the air in MRI rooms, labs, freezers, confined spaces, and other locations where inert gases such as helium, nitrogen and argon may displace the oxygen and create a danger for patients and staff. The OMS can be used indoors or outdoors.

Zirconium Oxide Sensor
At the heart of the OMS is a non-depleting zirconium oxide sensor that has a 10-year service life. The sensor does not require a reference gas for calibration and can operate in nitrogen environments of up to 100%. The sensor responds to low oxygen conditions within seconds, and readings are not affected by changes in temperature, humidity, or barometric pressure. Other systems using less sophisticated technology require periodic calibration and sensor replacement. They can also be susceptible to false triggering caused by temperature extremes or sudden changes in barometric pressure.
