Orbital PRO2stick Oxygen Analyzer
The Orbital Service PRO2stick Oxygen Analyzer is a portable residual oxygen analyzer designed to accurately monitor oxygen levels during tube and pipe purging for orbital TIG welding and high-purity fabrication.
Capable of measuring oxygen concentrations from 1,000 ppm down to 1 ppm O₂, the PRO2stick helps operators verify purge quality before and during welding, reducing the risk of oxidation while improving weld consistency and quality.
Built with a durable aluminum housing, the PRO2stick features a unique shake-to-measure activation for rapid startup, an integrated Bluetooth® Class 1 module for wireless connectivity, and a high-resolution OLED display with automatic screen rotation. Designed for demanding fabrication environments, it delivers reliable oxygen measurements without being affected by hydrogen, humidity, or ozone, making it ideal for stainless steel process piping, pharmaceutical systems, semiconductor fabrication, and other high-purity welding applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the PRO2stick Oxygen Analyzer used for?
The PRO2stick measures residual oxygen levels during weld purging, allowing operators to confirm that purge conditions are suitable before and during orbital TIG welding.
What is the measuring range of the PRO2stick?
The analyzer measures oxygen concentrations from 1,000 ppm down to 1 ppm O₂, making it suitable for high-purity welding applications where extremely low oxygen levels are required.
Why is residual oxygen monitoring important during orbital welding?
Residual oxygen monitoring helps prevent oxidation (often called "sugaring") inside stainless steel tubing and pipe. Proper purge conditions produce cleaner weld roots, improve corrosion resistance, and help ensure consistent weld quality.
How quickly is the PRO2stick ready to use?
The PRO2stick is ready to measure in less than five seconds using its unique shake-to-measure activation, allowing operators to begin monitoring almost immediately.
Can the PRO2stick connect wirelessly to other devices?
Yes. The analyzer features Bluetooth® Class 1 connectivity with a wireless range of up to 100 metres (328 ft) under ideal conditions. It can communicate with compatible Orbital Service welding systems, PCs, and mobile devices.
How long does the battery last?
The integrated rechargeable battery provides up to 11 hours of continuous operation on a full charge, making it suitable for extended workdays.
Is the PRO2stick suitable for field use?
Yes. Its compact aluminum housing, lightweight design, long battery life, and fast startup make it an excellent choice for both fabrication shops and on-site welding applications.
Can the PRO2stick be used in hydrogen-containing purge gas environments?
Yes. The sensor is not affected by hydrogen, humidity, or ozone, providing reliable oxygen measurements in demanding welding and purge gas applications.
