Application Notes:

  • Sensor shall Avoid organic solvent, coatings, medicine, oil, and high-concentration gases;
  • All ME Sensors shall not be encapsulated completely by resin materials, and shall not be immersed in an oxygen-free environment, otherwise, it will damage the function of the sensor;
  • All ME sensors shall not be applied in a corrosive gas environment, or the sensor will be damaged;
  • Please test the sensitivity of gas sensors in a clean atmosphere;
  • Sensors Shall be avoided to face the gas, which flows directly from the front side;
  • To avoid bending and breaking pins;
  • Blowhole of the sensor should not be blocked and polluted, which will cause the sensitivity to decrease;
  • Excessive impact or vibration should be avoided;
  • Do not use the sensor when the shell is damaged;
  • It takes some time for the sensor to return to its normal state After being applied to high-concentration gas;
  • Do not take apart the sensor, otherwise, electrolyte leakage can cause sensor damage;
  • The working electrode and the reference electrode of the sensor shall be in a short circuit when stored.;
  • To preheat over 48hs before using and soldering forbidden;
  • Note: To keep continual product development, we reserve the right to change design features without prior notice!
