Importance of Carbon Monoxide sensor

With the progress of industry and society, the pollution of air caused by factory exhaust, automobile exhaust, internal combustion engine, etc. is becoming more and more serious, and carbon monoxide is also increasing day by day, which even leads to carbon monoxide poisoning of inhaled people. Carbon monoxide poisoning is the product of incomplete combustion of carbon-containing substances. Carbon monoxide enters the body through the respiratory tract and causes carbon monoxide poisoning. However, we know very little about carbon monoxide.

The measurement of carbon monoxide volume fraction is one of the most important indicators of good air quality. If the carbon monoxide value exceeds the standard, our health will be more damaged, so in nowadays, we need carbon monoxide sensor to detect the carbon monoxide concentration in the atmosphere scientifically.

Carbon Monoxide Sensor Working Principle

Carbon monoxide sensor is the core detection element of the CO detector. When the carbon monoxide in the environment diffuses to the sensor, its output terminal generates current output, which is provided to the sampling circuit in the detector, which can convert chemical energy into electrical energy.

At present, carbon monoxide sensors are developed in the direction of micro-miniaturization, integration, intelligence and multifunctionality, with stability and easy maintenance as hard requirements. Carbon monoxide sensors are widely used in various fields of industry and life, such as petroleum, chemical industry, iron and steel, metallurgy, mining, environmental protection, municipal, medical, food and many other fields.

Internet and the Internet of Things develop a lot in recent years, thus the application of Gas Sensors in the field is more intelligent, which also significantly expand the application space of Gas Sensors.
