Environmental Compliance
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
Panametrics is an active participant in Europe’s Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) take-back
initiative, directive 2012/19/EC.
The equipment that you bought has required the extraction and use of natural resources for its production. It may
contain hazardous substances that could impact health and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure on the
natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back systems. Those systems will reuse or recycle
most of the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way.
The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol invites you to use those systems.
If you need more information on the collection, reuse and recycling systems, please contact your local or regional
waste administration.
RoHS
The oxy.IQ fully complies with RoHS regulations (directive 2011/65/EU).
WARNING! Auxiliary equipment may have both manual and automatic modes of operation. As
equipment can move suddenly and without warning, do not enter the work cell of this
equipment during automatic operation, and do not enter the work envelope of this
equipment during manual operation. If you do, serious injury can result.
WARNING! Make sure that power to the auxiliary equipment is turned OFF and locked out before
you perform maintenance procedures on the equipment.

2. Remove the sensor manifold by unscrewing it from the blue knurled nut on the sensor base at the bottom of the
electronics module.
IMPORTANT: The maximum operating sample pressure for the oxy.IQ is 10 psig except when the ambient air adapter
is used for the sample manifold. The burst pressure of the sample manifold is 200 psig for all bases
except the ISO KF-40 flange adapter. Since this option is designed for a vacuum flange it cannot handle
sample pressure greater than 20 psig. Be sure the sample conditioning system is designed to maintain
the oxy.IQ pressure below these limits, and that the oxy.IQ outlet is vented to atmosphere during
operation and calibration.
3. Using PTFE tape as a sealant, connect the sample gas inlet and outlet to the 1/8” NPT ports on the sensor manifold
(see Figure 4 below). Either port may be used as the inlet or the outlet, as the direction of flow does not matter.

2.2 Wiring the oxy.IQ
To wire the oxy.IQ, refer to Figure 14 on page 28, then proceed as follows:
1. Attach the appropriate cable to the oxy.IQ (see Figure 5 below). Be sure to align the white arrow on the cable
connector with the white arrow on the oxy.IQ connector, and then push the top of the cable connector straight
down onto the mating connector on the rear of the electronics module until you hear it click into place.
IMPORTANT: Do not rotate the cable connector during installation (it is not threaded) and do not hold the connector
by its bottom section while pushing it down into place.
Figure 5: oxy.IQ Cable and Connector
2. Connect the flying lead end of the cable as shown in the wiring diagram, according to one of the following
conditions:
•No Zener barrier or galvanic isolator: For use in non-hazardous areas or div 2 hazardous areas.
•With Zener barrier or galvanic isolator: Required for use in hazardous areas.
IMPORTANT: To remove the cable from the oxy.IQ electronics module, simply pull straight up on the lower section of
the cable connector as close to the oxy.IQ body as possible. Do not pull on the cable or the upper portion
of the cable connector, and do not try to unscrew the cable connector.
2.2.1 Longer Cable Lengths
Panametrics offers cables in 2 m and 10 m standard lengths. Longer cable lengths may be used with the oxy.IQ, but
these are not available from Panametrics. If you require a longer cable, refer to the following figures for the required
cable specifications and construct your own cable for splicing onto the standard Panametrics cable:
• Standard cable: figure 10 and figure 11.
• IS cable: figure 12 and figure 13.
WARNING! For IS (Intrinsically Safe) applications, the oxy.IQ must be installed with a zener barrier
(see the top of Figure 14 on page 28). Also, for installations in a hazardous location, the
blue IS cable (p/n 704-1318-02, 10) must be used.

2.3 Installing an Oxygen Sensor
To install a new or replacement oxygen sensor in the oxy.IQ, refer to figure 6 below and complete the following steps:
Figure 6: Oxygen Sensor Installation
1. Disconnect the power from the oxy.IQ.
2. Loosen the blue knurled nut and remove the oxy.IQ electronics module from the sensor manifold. If a previous
oxygen sensor is already in place, remove and discard it.
3. Apply power to the unit. The screen will display “INITIALIZING PLEASE WAIT” for a few seconds before it begins to
display measurement data.
Note: Before continuing with the installation, become familiar with the procedures for programming and
calibrating the oxy.IQ discussed in Chapter 3, Initial Setup and Operation.
4. Trim the 4-20 mA analog output and set the range to 0-25% oxygen.
5. Open the airtight package (see figure 3) and remove the oxygen sensor from the package. To maintain the
oxygen sensor’s energy level, remove the red grounding tab and immediately install the sensor in the oxy.IQ
6. Orient the sensor so that its gold-plated electrodes are facing the spring-loaded contact pins in the sensor base
(see figure 6). Firmly press the oxygen sensor into the sensor base at the bottom of the oxy.IQ electronics module.
7. Perform an air calibration on the new oxygen sensor at this time. On the 0-25% oxygen scale, a properly
calibrated oxygen sensor shows a reading of 20.9% on the display and generates a current of 17.4 mA at the 4-20
mA analog output terminals.
8. Using the blue knurled nut, attach the oxy.IQ electronics module with the calibrated oxygen sensor to the sensor
manifold. Rotate the display as desired and then hand-tighten the blue knurled nut.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the o-ring on the top of the sensor manifold is in place and undamaged. If necessary,
contact Panametrics for a replacement.
9. Begin the flow of the process gas. The analog output reading will drop as the oxygen sensor adjusts to the
reduced oxygen level. During this time, reset the range as required.
10. For improved accuracy in the ppm oxygen ranges, a span gas calibration should now be performed (see “span
gas calibration”).
IMPORTANT: Sensor life is dependent on the application. High oxygen concentrations and contaminants such as
acidic gases will shorten the sensor life.

12 oxy.IQ User’s Manual
3.3.3.2 Recalibrating an Existing Sensor
For an existing sensor, continue the air calibration procedure as follows:
1. Press the Enter key to select the NO menu option.
2. As instructed, remove the sensor manifold to expose the oxygen sensor to ambient air for about two minutes.

shown. At that time, press the Enter key to save the calibration data and return to measurement mode.
3.3.4 Span Gas Calibration
Before beginning the span gas calibration, make sure the oxy.IQ is indicating an O2level less than the span gas value,
to ensure an accurate calibration. Then, start the flow of the span gas to the sensor. For accurate calibration, the
span gas should have an oxygen content of 70-90% of the range being calibrated.
To perform the span calibration, complete the following steps:
1. Use the equation below to calculate the expected mA output that corresponds to the known oxygen content of
the span gas:
For example, if the span gas contains 80 ppm oxygen and the 0-100 ppm range is being calibrated, the analog
output should equal 4 + 16 x (80/100) = 16.8 mA.
2. If you have not done so already, start the flow of span gas to the sensor and allow both the 4-20 mA output
reading and the display reading to stabilize.
3. After the reading has stabilized, press the Enter key to enter the Main Menu.
4. Press the Enter key to enter the Calibration menu.
5. Press the key and then press the Enter key to select the Span Gas menu option.
6. Press the and keys until the measurement agrees with the span calibration gas value.
7. Confirm that the reading on the display has stabilized, and press the
Enter key to save the calibration. Then, press the Cancel key twice to return to measurement mode.
