Performance Data
For full details of the 4OXV's performance, please refer to the sensor Characterisation Note, available from a member of our Technical Sales team.
Poisons
CiTiceLs are designed for operation in a wide range of environments and harsh conditions. However it is important that exposure to high concentrations of solvent vapours is avoided, both during storage, fitting into instruments, and operation. When using sensors with printed circuit boards (PCBs), degreasing agents should be used before the sensor is fitted. Do not glue directly on or near the CiTiceL as the solvent may cause crazing of the plastic.
Cross Sensitivity Data
Toxic gases at TLV levels will have no cross-sensitivity effect on Oxygen CiTiceLs. At very high levels (i.e. percent levels), highly oxidising gases (e.g. ozone, chlorine) will interfere to the extent of their oxygen equivalent, but most other commonly occurring gases will have no effect.
Acid Gases
IMPORTANT NOTE: Acid gases such as CO2 and SO2 will be absorbed by the electrolyte and tend to increase the flux of oxygen to the electrode. This gives an enhanced oxygen signal of approximately 0.3% output per 1% CO2 . Oxygen CiTiceLs are not suitable for continuous operation in concentrations of CO2 above 25%.
