The PRO OX-100 programmable handheld digital oxygen monitor is designed to give operators the most precise oxygen level readings possible.
All Pro OX-100 oxygen monitors sold before August 1, 2019 are calibrated via “Self-Calibration”. This method uses only ambient air to calibrate.
All monitors sold after August 1, 2019 are calibrated via “2-Point Calibration”. This method uses a high point (ambient air) and low point (99.999% Argon) to calibrate.
Internationally renowned for its highly advanced features and low-cost, this oxygen weld monitor with an internal pump accurately measures down to 0.01% (100 ppm) resolution, making it ideal for purging and other welding applications.
Great pride goes into manufacturing the CE approved PRO OX-100 in the USA at the Aquasol® Corporation’s ISO Certified Factory.
The PRO OX-100 comes equipped with many advanced features such as its data logging capabilities, which allow operators to create permanent records of real time data (at 15 second intervals) and export up to 50 data points to Microsoft® Excel and plain text format.
The PRO OX-100 also offers a built-in, programmable multi-language feature with on-screen instructions that are available in English, Spanish, German, and Portuguese. Together with different voltage and frequency specifications and compatibilities, the PRO OX-100 is the most universal oxygen weld monitor available on the global market today.

High-frequency may be an issue with monitors receiving readings around specific welding machines. To test for this, place a piece of metal foil/sheet metal between the monitor and the machine, to protect it from interfering with the circuit board. If the monitor reading is normal, high-frequency equipment is interfering.
Any new 9V rechargeable battery can be substituted in the PRO-OX 100. The specification for the 9V battery is NiMH 280mAh. Additionally, any ordinary (non-chargeable) battery may be used as well.
The PRO OX-100 logs data that can be transferred to a computer via USB cable. Conversion software enables easy capture and export of 50 data points to Microsoft® Excel and Plain text format. Data is recorded in 15 second intervals in CONTINUOUS mode or as needed in SPOT mode.

Self Calibrating Model:
Calibration can be performed on a weekly basis. There are no other specific recommendations regarding maintenance besides general care of the unit such as cleaning, proper storage, etc.
Point Calibration Model:
1. As the unit undergoes 2 point calibration, it is not necessary to recalibrate unless the SENSOR needs replacement. A CAL ERR will indicate a need for replacement.
2. Replace sensor and follow instructions in section 2.1.7 of the manual pages 19-21.
Self Calibrating Model:
If a unit is used very frequently (daily) it should be calibrated once a week. If it is not used frequently, it should be calibrated once every three weeks.
2 Point Calibration Model:
As the unit undergoes 2 point calibration, it is not necessary to recalibrate unless the SENSOR needs replacement. A CAL ERR will indicate a need for replacement.
Every oxygen monitor is shipped with a Calibration Certificate.
The Pro OX-100 is battery operated, but can also be operated through a standalone power supply. For specifications on use, refer to section 2.1.1 of the manual. With a full-charge, the battery can supply continuous power for up to two (2) hours.
When using The Pro OX-100 Oxygen Monitor for LESS than two (2) continuous hours, ensure a fully charged battery is installed into the battery housing. Then turn the power switch to the ON position. Continue to use the monitor until operation is complete or the battery indicator displays the “low battery indicator”.
When using The Pro OX®-100 Oxygen Monitor for MORE than two (2) continuous hours be sure to turn the power switch to the OFF position. If the battery is installed, remove it from the housing. Then connect the standalone power supply/charger cable to the port. After this step, connect the power supply/charger plug into the nearest working outlet (110V for US type/220V for EU type). Then simply turn the power switch to the ON position. The Pro OX-100 is capable of operating indefinitely with a standalone power supply.
CAUTION: ALWAYS REMOVE THE BATTERY IF USING THE MONITOR FOR MORE THAN 2 CONTINUOUS HOURS. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN OVERHEAT THE BATTERY AND SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE PRODUCT AS WELL AS VOID THE WARRANTY.
The PRO OX-100 can operate in temperatures as low as 0°C (32°F) and as high as 50°C (122°F).
The sensor has a lifespan of approximately one year under normal operating conditions (see manual for operating temperature, proper storage guidelines, etc.).
Sensors are available for purchase. Each sensor has a one-year warranty. It is not recommended to keep stock of extra sensors. Sensors are readily available to ship and are lightweight.
If there is an issue starting the pump when pressing the SPOT or CONT button, the pump may be damaged. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
If there is no display when the toggle switch is in the ON position, either the battery is drained or the LCD is damaged.
If the battery is drained, simply recharge the battery or use the standalone power supply. Refer to section 1.2.2B of the PRO OX-100 manual for instructions.
If the screen does not light up, replace the battery.
If the LCD is damaged, the unit must be sent to Aquasol Corporation for repair. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
If strange symbols appear on the screen when the toggle switch is in the ON position, the display is damaged.
The unit must be repaired. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
The keypad is damaged if the keys do not correspond with what is on the display. The unit must be sent to Aquasol Corporation for repair. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
To test the PRO OX-100 audiovisual alarm, follow the guidelines below:
If user is unable to set the alarm, the program could be corrupted. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
If the alarm does not sound or flash, the alarm is either disabled or damaged. In order to fix this, refer to the manual Section 2.1.3. and follow the instructions. If the issue still persists, the unit must be sent to Aquasol Corporation for repair. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
If the alarm light does not blink, even though the sound goes off, the light indicator is damaged. To fix this, the unit must be sent to Aquasol Corporation for repair. Contact customer service for an RGA authorization.
Self Calibrating Model:
Ensure the sensor is plugged into the sockets properly. After running for 30 seconds, if calibration is successful, the screen will display “CALIBRATION DONE”.
Self Calibrating & 2 Point Calibration Models:
If CAL ERR is displayed, sensor must be replaced. Call Aquasol customer service.
