If a strip of conductive metal is stretched, it will become skinnier and longer, both changes resulting in an increase of electrical resistance end-to-end. Conversely, if a strip of conductive metal is placed under compressive force (without buckling), it will broaden and shorten.

Oxygen sensorsTheory of operation of the KE25/50 - the KE series sensor is a lead-oxygen battery which incorporates a lead anode, an oxygen cathode made of gold, and a weak acid electrolyte. Oxygen molecules enter the electrochemical cell through a non-porous fluorine resin membrane and are reduced at the gold electrode with the acid electrolyte. The current which flows between the electrodes is proportional to the oxygen concentration in the gas mixture being measured. The terminal voltages across the thermistor (for temperature compensation) and resistor are read as a signal, with the change in output voltages representing the change in oxygen concentration.

Summary – gas sensors

• selectivity – ability to distinguish different gases or to be sensitive to one substance

• working conditions – temperature, acquisition time

• sensitivity

Test questions (an example):

• Name 4 principles of temperature sensors.

• What is the sensitivity and selectivity of a

sensor ?
