10. Detection Principle Galvanic cell sensor (oxygen) The sensor consists of two electrodes, a membrane, and an electrolyte. The electrodes are two different metals, noble metal (Pt, Ag) and base metal (Pb). The noble metal electrode has contact with air via a Teflon membrane. Connecting load resistance to both electrodes generates a potential difference, which promotes the following reactions: Noble metal electrode:...
11. Glossary Term Definition Target gas Specific gas to be detected and used to trigger alarms. Detection range or A range of target gas concentrations that can be measuring range displayed and can trigger alarms. Service range A range of target gas concentrations that the detector can indicate, which are usually outside the Detection Range and used only as reference.
