Dissolved Ozone Analyzers

Monitor dissolved ozone in water treatment, bottling and disinfection.

View Products

An ozone analyzer tracks dissolved ozone continuously, because ozone decays quickly after dosing, so a spot check can't confirm there's enough left to disinfect without overdosing and damaging equipment or product. The Chemitec S494 N sensor and Series 46 transmitter cover drinking water, bottled water and process water disinfection, and can also control the ozone generator directly.

Dissolved Ozone Analyzers Guide

How an ozone analyzer works

The S494 N ozone sensor is a membrane amperometric probe: dissolved ozone diffuses through a microporous membrane and reacts at an internal electrode, producing a current proportional to concentration, with built-in temperature compensation. Because ozone decays within minutes of dosing, unlike chlorine, which is more stable, a continuous inline reading is the only practical way to confirm the residual at the point of use rather than relying on a sample that's already lost some of its ozone by the time it's tested.

How to choose an ozone analyzer

  • Body material: PVC, PEEK or AISI 316 construction, chosen for compatibility with your water chemistry and any cleaning chemicals.
  • Pressure and temperature: rated 0 to 3 bar and 0 to 45 °C as standard.
  • Generator control: pair with the Series 46 transmitter to close the loop, since it can drive the ozone generator output directly from the measured residual, not just alarm on it.
  • Second parameter: the Series 46 can add pH or another parameter on the same display where the process needs both.
  • Application: bottled water and beverage rinse lines need tight, low residuals before filling; drinking water and cooling water treatment tolerate a wider working band.

FAQ

Common questions

Why measure dissolved ozone continuously instead of spot-checking?

Ozone decays quickly after dosing, often within minutes, so a sample taken away from the process no longer reflects the actual residual at the point of use. A continuous inline reading is the only reliable way to confirm the disinfection level and adjust dosing before it drops too low.

How does the S494 N sensor measure ozone?

It's a membrane amperometric probe: dissolved ozone diffuses through a microporous membrane and reacts at an internal electrode, producing a current proportional to concentration, with a built-in temperature sensor for automatic compensation, the same principle as Chemitec's other oxidant sensors.

Can the transmitter control the ozone generator directly?

Yes. The Series 46 transmitter displays the ozone reading, raises alarms and can control the ozone generator output, with one or two parameters, so the dose tracks the measured residual instead of running the generator at a fixed rate.

Can I measure ozone and pH on the same transmitter?

Yes. The Series 46 handles two parameters on one display, so ozone and pH, or ozone and another compatible parameter, can share a single transmitter instead of needing two separate controllers.

Where is ozone monitoring typically used?

Common applications are bottled water and beverage rinse water, drinking water disinfection, and cooling water or process water treatment, wherever ozone is dosed and its fast decay means the residual needs continuous confirmation rather than periodic sampling.

What pressure and temperature does the ozone sensor handle?

The S494 N ozone sensor is rated 0 to 3 bar and 0 to 45 °C as standard, in PVC, PEEK or AISI 316 construction depending on the version, which covers most bottling, drinking water and cooling water applications without special conditioning.
