Additive Manufacturing Gas Monitoring Solutions
Additive manufacturing processes demand precise control of oxygen and moisture levels to protect build quality, ensure operator safety, and maintain consistent results across every print. From inert gas management in 3D printers and powder-handling systems to air filtration and depowdering stages, accurate gas measurement is critical at every step of the AM workflow. Sensore’s range of oxygen and moisture analyzers and transmitters provides reliable, real-time monitoring solutions designed specifically to support high-performance additive manufacturing environments.

The OXY-ProXT Transmitter delivers precise, reliable oxygen measurement for industrial and process applications without routine calibration. Built on robust zirconia sensor technology, it covers low ppm to full percent oxygen levels and offers flexible outputs, including 4–20 mA, optional 0–5 V, and RS-485 Modbus RTU, for easy integration into diverse control systems.
Designed for closed shielding and inert gas atmospheres, such as in metal Additive Manufacturing, the OXY-ProXT operates over 700–1300 mbar absolute. Pre-calibrated smart sensors provide measurement ranges from 10 ppm to 96% oxygen and can be replaced easily without downtime, reference gases, or external service, reducing service costs and machine downtime. With its plug-and-play sensors and robust performance, the OXY-ProXT is ideal for OEMs and system integrators needing continuous, dependable oxygen monitoring. |
