10.1.5 Cell Voltage

The cell (sensor) voltage will be an index to determine the amount of degradation of the sensor.

The cell voltage corresponds to the oxygen concentration currently being measured. If the indicated

voltage approximates the ideal value (corresponding to the measured oxygen concentration), the

sensor will be assumed to be normal.
The ideal value of the cell voltage (E), when the oxygen concentration measurement temperature is

controlled at 750°C., may be expressed mathematically by:

E = -50.74 log (Px/Pa) [mV]

where, Px: Oxygen concentration in the sample gas

Pa: Oxygen concentration in the reference gas, (21 vol%O

2

)

Table 10.2

shows oxygen concentration versus cell voltage.

10.1.6 Thermocouple Voltage

The cell temperature is measured with a Type K (chromel-alumel) thermocouple. The thermocouple

cold junction is located in the detector terminal box. The cell temperature and the thermocouple

voltage (including the voltage corresponding to the cold junction temperature) are displayed.

10.1.7 Cold Junction Voltage

This equipment uses temperature-measurement ICs that measure the cold junction temperatures.

The voltage measured by those ICs is displayed.

10.1.8 Current Output

The analog output current is displayed.
