MOD-1040 Oxygen Analyzer Wins Best Industrial Sensing Technology Award
A New Benchmark in Hydrogen and
Hydrocarbon Safety
London, United Kingdom – August 2025 – Modcon
Systems Ltd., a London-based industrial analytics company, has been honored
with the Best Industrial Sensing Technology Award for its
breakthrough MOD-1040 Optical Oxygen Analyzer. This award,
presented by the International Research Awards on Sensing Technology,
recognizes the analyzer’s exceptional contribution to industrial process safety
and efficiency across hydrogen, natural gas, and refinery operations.
Revolutionizing Industrial Oxygen
Monitoring
In modern process industries, accurate oxygen
measurement is critical for maintaining operational safety, product
quality, and environmental compliance. Oxygen can be both a friend and an enemy
— essential for combustion but dangerous in excess. Even minimal oxygen
intrusion in hydrogen systems or hydrocarbon pipelines can
cause corrosion, combustion risks, and costly downtime.
The MOD-1040 Oxygen
Analyzersolves these long-standing challenges with in-situ,
real-time oxygen detection, ensuring process reliability even in the
harshest environments.
Key Features of the MOD-1040 Oxygen
Analyzer
- In-situ
and contactless measurement – Directly monitors oxygen inside the
process line, eliminating the need for extractive sampling.
- Quenched
fluorescence optical technology – Provides sub-ppm precision and
fast response time.
- Certified
for hazardous areas – ATEX and IECEx approved, suitable for
explosive environments.
- SIL-2
compliance – Meets international safety standards for integration
into automated plant systems.
- Designed
for harsh process conditions – Resistant to high pressure,
temperature, and chemical interference.
These features make the MOD-1040 not just a sensor, but
a comprehensive safety instrument for the modern energy and
chemical industries.
Importance for Hydrogen Safety
With the global hydrogen economy expanding, safety is
becoming a defining factor in its success. Hydrogen is highly flammable, and
when combined with oxygen, it forms explosive mixtures at concentrations as low
as 4%.
The MOD-1040 helps hydrogen producers,
electrolyzer manufacturers, and storage operators monitor oxygen continuously,
ensuring:
- Prevention
of hydrogen-oxygen explosion hazards,
- Maintenance
of fuel-cell grade hydrogen purity,
- Protection
of critical equipment from oxidation, and
- Immediate
safety response in case of oxygen ingress.
By delivering real-time oxygen analytics, Modcon’s
technology enhances both safety and operational uptime in hydrogen production
and transport systems.
Benefits for Hydrocarbon and
Refining Operations
The MOD-1040 is equally transformative for
the hydrocarbon industry. In natural gas processing and refining, oxygen
intrusion can lead to pipeline corrosion, product instability, and reduced
catalyst lifespan.
With its ultra-sensitive detection and fast feedback loop,
the analyzer enables:
- Early
detection of air leaks in gas pipelines,
- Optimized
flare combustion for reduced emissions,
- Consistent
feedstock quality in distillation and conversion units.
These capabilities translate directly into lower maintenance
costs, fewer unplanned shutdowns, and improved environmental compliance.
Industry Recognition and Leadership
The Best Industrial Sensing Technology Award,
officially registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, acknowledges
technologies that demonstrate measurable industrial impact. Verification of the
award’s authenticity is available through sensors.sciencefather.com.
Gregory Shahnovsky, CEO of Modcon Systems Ltd., commented:
“We designed the MOD-1040 to give industries real-time
visibility into oxygen safety risks. This award reflects our team’s mission —
to turn precision sensing into practical, field-ready solutions for safer and
more efficient operations.”
Supporting the Global Energy Transition
As industries transition toward cleaner fuels and more
sustainable processes, precise oxygen monitoring becomes essential for
both safety and efficiency. The MOD-1040 supports
this global movement by providing reliable, automated insight into oxygen
behavior across complex industrial systems.
Its ability to integrate with advanced control systems,
digital twins, and AI-based process optimization platforms positions Modcon as
a technology leader at the intersection of industrial safety and digital transformation.
