The inner workings of the gas sensor technology
At the heart of each Sensor Module lies a solid polymer electrochemical gas sensor, representing a revolutionary innovation in the field of electrochemical detection. This technology operates based on the principle of electrochemical catalytic reactions. This is a basic electrochemical reaction, where the sensor responds to target gases by generating a small electric current signal, which is directly proportional to the gas concentration. Traditional electrochemical sensors use liquid or gel electrolytes, which pose operational challenges. The EC Sense solid polymer electrochemical gas sensors effectively overcome these obstacles creating gas sensors which are small, robust, reliable and above all do not consume any power.
