Features and benefits

With measurement ranges up to 0-10,000ppm, the Comet series offers significant advantages to OEM customers in a variety of markets.

Easy to set up

The Comet series of sensors are factory calibrated, and use Hummingbird’s quick-connect NEKTA protocol for easy integration.

Exceptional stability

Our industry-leading Comet sensors are characterized by ultra-low drift performance, and come with a five-year warranty.

Low cost of ownership

All versions have minimal ongoing maintenance requirements and need only an annual span calibration, reducing costs.

Typical applications

Our sensor products are designed for flexible integration in a wide range of markets. The Comet is frequently used in low O₂ measurement applications, including controlled atmosphere glove boxes, controlled atmosphere heat treating, controlled atmosphere furnaces, modified atmosphere packaging systems, gas analyzers, monitors and detectors, gas bottling systems, and food packaging permeability testing.
