TECHNICAL INFORMATION FOR KE-SERIES
Technical Information for Maxell Oxygen Sensor KE-Series
The Maxell Oxygen Sensor
KE-Series is a unique galvanic
cell type oxygen sensor which
provides a linear output voltage
signal relative to percent oxygen
present in a particular atmosphere.
The sensor features long life
expectancy, excellent chemical
durability, and it is not influenced
by CO
, making it ideal for
2
oxygen monitoring.
