2B Tech’s ozone monitors measure ozone in air using the well-established technique of UV absorbance at 254 nanometers. Ozone is measured by comparing the transmission of light through a detection cell with ozone present, and with ozone removed. The ozone concentration is calculated using the Beer-Lambert Law.
Single-beam models include the 106-L, 202, and POM, while the Model 205, 211, and 211-G are dual-beam ozone instruments that offer the quickest response time and highest precision and baseline stability.
Our monitors incorporate a unique feature of 2B Tech instruments, the DewLineTM, for elimination of water vapor interferences. All of our ozone monitors use Hopcalite scrubbers to provide the ozone-free measurement needed for the Beer’s Law calculation of ozone concentration, except for the Model 211 and 211-G which use novel scrubbing methods that provide “interference-free” measurements in highly polluted environments where non-ozone UV absorbing substances could interfere.
Ozone is often used to fumigate fruit and vegetables, to reduce occurrence of pathogens that can cause food-borne illnesses. This study used the Model 106-MH to monitor ozone administered to grape tomatoes to inactivate Salmonella, yeasts, and molds. Although the treatments reduced Salmonella and native microbiota populations, there were tradeoffs in various quality measures and nutrient content of the tomatoes.
In this study, a new method of cleaning the cabins of passenger airplanes was studied. High ozone was pumped into the aircraft’s air conditioning system. The 0-100 ppm range of the Model 106-L enabled researchers to monitor the fumigation levels of the ozone as well as the fallback to safe levels. Hospital-grade sterilization was achieved in about 90 minutes of treatment, with the added benefit of the ability of ozone to penetrate the hard-to-reach places on the plane, such as tray tables in the locked & upright position.
Researchers at the University of São Paulo are studying the use of ozone as a more environmentally sound method for modifying the properties of starch. Industrial sectors that use starch include food, petrochemical, adhesives, paints, and others. This study applied high ozone and used the Model 106-H Ozone Monitor to follow the inlet and outlet concentrations of a reactor containing the starch. The study identified several techniques for optimizing starch properties.

2B Tech has adapted our AQLite Basic Air Monitoring Package and made it compatible with Clarity’s nodes. It has never been easier to make FEM-quality ozone measurements in remote locations while being able to access the data from anywhere in the world.
Several of 2B Tech’s portable air monitoring instruments have recently been featured in the press as part of an effort to raise awareness to growing air quality concerns.
