Yokogawa offers dissolved oxygen (DO) analyzer that works with the three common technologies for dissolved oxygen measurements: polarographic, galvanic and optical. Our dissolved oxygen analyzers provide high precision measurement and are built to withstand the harshest applications, requiring minimum maintenance and helping you achieve increased efficiency and reduced operating costs. The standard units of measure are milligrams per liter (mg/l), parts per million (ppm), parts per billion (ppb), or % saturation.

The FLEXA™ series analyzers are modular-designed analyzers used for continuous online measurements in industrial installations. They offer single or multi-sensor measurement.
The FLEXA™ series analyzers are used for continuous on-line measurements in industrial installations. With an option for single or dual sensor measurement, they are the most flexible two-wire analyzer available.

Four-Wire vs. Two-Wire Analyzers
What is a 4-wire analyzer?
This terminology only refers to the power supply of the analyzer. It does not have any reference to the number of wires. The 4-wire analyzers separate the power supply from the measurement output. As a minimum, we need two wires for the power supply and two wires for the current output of the analyzer. The FLXA402 has two analog outputs. four digital outputs. One digital input and of course the sensor input wiring. That is why FLXA402 has 6 cable glands. The advantage is that any functions are combined in one enclosure. Local control and alarm functions are possible. In small control installations, this is a cost-saving feature.
What is a 2-wire analyzer?
The 2-wire analyzers commonly referred to as Analyzers combine the wires for current output, for power supply and digital communication. The FLXA202 combines the power supply with mA output and HART® communication: all with only two wires plus shield. The advantage is safety (only 24VDC) and simple installation. Just two wires between the control room and analyzer. This is an advantage in large scale operations where process control is centralized in the DCS system.
