  • Patent number: 11650188
    Abstract: Various embodiments described herein relate to methods, apparatuses, and systems for recovering gas sensors from silicone poisoning. In an example embodiment, a method of recovering a gas sensing apparatus from silicone poisoning is provided. The method includes exposing the gas sensing apparatus to a predetermined hydrogen concentration for a period of hydrogen exposure time. The predetermined hydrogen concentration breaks down the silicon oxide bonds formed on a catalytic bead of the gas sensing apparatus. The method also includes providing a methane concentration to the gas sensing apparatus for a period of methane exposure time. The method further includes determining that the gas sensing apparatus satisfies a predetermined calibration sensitivity based on the reaction of the gas sensing apparatus to the methane concentration.

  • Patent number: 11187670
    Abstract: Embodiments relate generally to systems and methods for preventing reaction between a sealing material (epoxy) and an electrolyte material within a carbon monoxide (or other gas) sensor. In general, the electrochemical sensor disclosed herein comprises a gas diffusion working electrode, a counter electrode, and optionally, a reference electrode. Each electrode is in contact with an aqueous electrolyte. The gas sensor may comprise a tab located proximate to gaps in the housing of the sensor, wherein the tab prevents any sealing material that fills the gaps from entering the interior of the housing. In some embodiments, the tab may be attached to a counter electrode. In some embodiments, the housing may comprise a slot located about the gaps, wherein the tab fits into the slot of the housing.
