SGX Solid Polymer Electrolyte Gas Sensors - VOC
Product Overview
The SGX series of PS1 and PS4 Electrochemical gas sensors leverage a revolutionary 'Solid Polymer Electrolyte' technology based on catalytic reaction principles. These sensors generate a small current proportional to the target gas concentration, offering a stable, high-quality, and cost-effective manufacturing process. They are characterized by their very small size, high sensitivity, zero power consumption, and low cross-sensitivity to other gases. Ideal for general gas detection, consumer markets, VOC gas detection, mobile phone noses, and indoor/outdoor air quality monitoring, these sensors provide reliable performance in various applications.

Important Notes
- All performance is based on conditions at 20C, 50% RH and 1 atm, flow rate>150qcm/min, using SGX recommended circuitry.
- Sensor performance is temperature dependant; please contact SGX for temperature performance other than 20C.
- Do not solder to the connector pins as this may damage the sensor and thereby invalidate the warranty.
- Details on recommended connector pins can be found in the Frequently Asked Questions within the Gas Sensor section of the SGX website.
