Exceptional
Company Standards |
The American
Society for Testing and Materials Standards (ASTM) establishes standards
for the testing of materials. The ASTM Standard D3985 is
for testing the Oxygen Permeation Rate (OTR) through a plastic material
in the form of sheet, coated material, laminate or package.
The International Organization for Standardization test procedure standard
is ISO 15105. The German standard is D53380-3.
The test material
is held in such a manner that it separates two side of a test chamber.
One side is exposed to a nitrogen atmosphere and the other side is exposed
to an oxygen atmosphere. Testing is complete when the
concentration of oxygen in the nitrogen side is constant.
Illinois Instruments,
Inc. has a complete line of Oxygen Permeation analyzers that conforms to
D3985 , ISO 15105-2 and DIN 53380-3.

Background
With decades
of experience in process gas analysis, Illinois Instruments, Inc. has become
recognized worldwide as a leader in oxygen analysis. With facilities in
the US, Europe, and Asia, we offer a wide range of products and services
to satisfy nearly every process gas measurement need.
Our line of
permeation analyzers has been the fastest growing segment of our business.
Selling to companies in the plastics, food, and pharmaceutical industries,
we continue to expand into this industry while developing new products
and methods.
Our recent move
to Johnsburg, Illinois nearly tripled the space for manufacturing and added
a controlled environment laboratory to house our testing services group.
Industries
Served
Each of our
products has proven uniquely suited to a broad range of applications in
a diverse field of industries. Among these are: high-purity gas production,
electronics assembly, semiconductor manufacturing, heat treating, and food
and pharmaceutical packaging.
Technologies
Illinois Instruments,
Inc. maintains research and engineering facilities driven toward sensor
research and ongoing technological innovation. As one of the only oxygen
analyzer companies using all 4 different proven oxygen sensor technologies,
we are uniquely positioned to handle virtually all oxygen measurement applications.
This combination
of sensors allows us to measure from 0.01 ppb up to 100% oxygen in most
industrial gas streams. As an example, our innovative RACE Oxygen Sensor
represents a quantum leap in fuel cell sensor technology. Capable of purging
from 20.9% down to 20 ppm within 2 minutes, it's response time is unmatched
in the industry. This sensor has found wide acceptance in the electronics
assembly industry.
