NDIR Gas Sensors: Are there any downsides to consider?

NDIR gas sensors were introduced in the 1960s and has been a staple of the gas detection industry for decades. These gas sensors work by detecting combustible gases at different wavelengths using infrared light. There are many advantages to using NDIR technology, but there are also some disadvantages that any user should consider. NDIR Technology

How Does Electrochemical Gas Sensor Work?

Understanding the JXCT Electrochemical Gas Sensor Circuit Electrochemical gas sensor measures the concentration of a target gas by using oxidation or reduction reactions to generate positive or negative current flow through an external circuit. The basic components of an electrochemical sensor include a “working” electrode, a “counter” electrode and in most case a “reference” electrode.

SF6 gas sensors for gas-insulated switchgears

The main application area of the non-combustible gas sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is the insulation of high voltage switchgear, transformer and cable. Although sulfur hexafluoride is non-toxic and non-flammable, its global warming potential is about 24,000 times that of carbon dioxide (GWP =23,900). In addition, sulfur hexafluoride is odorless, heavier than air, and can accumulate in

How Does an Electrochemical Carbon Monoxide Sensor Work?

Sensors in Carbon Monoxide Detectors The electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor uses gel to detect CO. The electrochemical gas sensor is mainly used to detect oxygen and toxic gases. They measure chemical reactions within the sensor to produce a current output proportional to the level of CO. Essentially, Electrochemical carbon monoxide sensor is small fuel cells
