Oxymac50, DE800,
Elecdit
Oxygen Sensor Interface
Boards
DESCRIPTION
The Oxymac 50, Elecdit and DE800 sensor interface boards
are control and measurement devices for Honeywell’s range of
dynamic, highly accurate oxygen sensors. The ability of these
sensors to operate without any reference gas makes them
ideal for potential applications such as combustion and
environmental control.
Honeywell oxygen sensors using zirconia-based sensing
elements require external connection to an electronic
measuring circuit to control sensor operation and signal
processing.
A heating element on the sensor produces the 700 °C
[1292 °F] required for the ZrO2 to achieve its operational
temperature. These interface boards supply the sensor with
the necessary circuits to provide this control and processing,
while also providing sensor calibration. The DE800 interface
also includes the heater supply, while the Oxymac50 and
Elecdit require an external heater power supply.
Oxymac50 is a recently upgraded interface that offers similar
performance to the Elecdit board but operates from a 24 Vdc
power supply.
The DE800 interface offers the features of the Oxymac50 but
also contains the heating element power source.
The Elecdit interface was developed for Industrial applications
and offers a level of noise protection. It operates from a ±15 V
supply.
Oxymac50 and DE800 are the recommended interfaces for
new applications.
The interfaces are supplied ready for mounting into customers’
enclosures. Oxymac50 a 15-pin D type connector, DE800 has
screw connector block and Elecdit has 2,5 mm x 2,5 mm
[0.1 in x 0.1 in] pin connector.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Provides the necessary circuits to control Honeywell
oxygen sensors which removes the need to implement
sensor control circuits within the customers’ equipment
Functional testing and calibration in ambient air removes
effects of barometric or application pressure
PCB board format provides ease of mounting and
calibration access
Linear output of measured oxygen content in voltage or
current format for a flexible interconnection
Low power consumption for lower running costs
POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Boiler combustion controls
Aircraft oxygen generation systems

OPERATING AND CALIBRATION NOTES (See Figure 1
Oxymac50
Reset the Oxymac50 by turning the power off/on.
The output signal may be 0 V to 10 V or 4 mA to 20 mA. It is factory set by the solder bridge JP1.
Proper operation of a connected sensor and electronic circuit may be tested with the test switch or with an external signal.
The output signal should indicate a 20% lower value after switching the test function.
A blinking LED D3 indicates proper sensor operation.
The sensor and Oxymac50 circuit may be calibrated in normal air. The Oxymac50 circuit stores the calibration value after a
power loss.
DE800
The heater voltage of the sensor may be adjusted with pot meter PC419.
After pressing the test button, the output must go to a 20% lower output signal. Testing with an external (24 V) signal is
possible via terminal TE.
The sensor may be calibrated in normal air with the calibration button. Calibration is lost after power loss.
A blinking LED D4 indicates proper sensor operation.
A pulse signal may be measured at terminal K2 if the sensor is functioning properly.
Elecdit
The interface is factory set. Follow these adjustment/calibration instructions for sensor replacement:
1. Adjust Pot1 to 12 V (internal ±6 V) at Pin 2.
2. Adjust Pot2 to reference at Pin 1 to 10 V ±0.2 V.
3. After approx 60 s an impulse (blinking) signal should be present at Pin 1. Apply 95 mbar air at the sensor, adjust Pot5 at Pin 9
to 0.8 V, then apply 1013 mbar air at the sensor and adjust Pot3 at Pin 9 Uout to 8.3 V.
4. Adjust Pot4 to 0 mV at Pin 10.
5. Adjust Pot5 to Uout to 0 V at Pin 9.
