I'm not sure why an oxygen analyzer that goes to .001% (an extremely low
level) would be needed. I believe that the data describing sensitivity
of insects to anoxia has been done at far less accurate levels.  As in
RH data logging for conservation, I suspect that we occasionally be
using too many decimal points (just because we can). I've had
discussionsl with conservators who have been concerned when noticing rh
changes from 50% to 49.8% !  The technology to four decimal points may
(or may not!) be accurate, but does it matter outside a specific
laboratory experiment?
 
There is an easier solution:
Hanwell now makes a simple device called the Zero2. It is a small
electronic device that indicates when oxygen levels are above or below
0.02% with a simple indicator light (red for above, green for below). It
is far less expensive than an oxygen analyzer, and extremely easy to set
up and use. These may be purchased in North America through Keepsafe
Systems (www.keepsafe.ca).
 
If you are setting up a permanent facility, the investment in a full
oxygen analyzer may be appropriate. Be sure to shop carefully.
 
Ageless Eyes are designed for use in food packaging. They must be
purchased in carton quantities (by the hundreds), and kept in a
refrigerator before use. Their shelf life when refrigerated is said to
be six months. Ageless Eyes are extremely sensitive (oxygen, heat,
light, pressure), and should not be reused. 
Mitsubishi has asked me to not sell them outside the food industry. In
my own experience, they are not reliable unless used in a rigidly
controlled system (eg, food packaging), and may lead to false
indications. (In the food industry, packages are easily retested if the
operator senses a malfunction of the indicator - this is less likely in
a conservation setting.)

Hi J.S. OH, 
Even though it is not a datalogger, maybe you can use the Ageless Eye?
it is made by Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company

Hi all
 
We try to operate anoxia chamber and measure oxygen concentrarion in
chamber.
Does anyone have any informations of information of oxygen concentration
datalogger(until 0.001%) ?
 
Sincerely yours
