  • Publication number: 20140102914
    Abstract: A sensor for detecting a target analyte in a gaseous sample at ultra-low concentrations wherein access opening(s) provided through the sensor housing are plugged with endcap(s) and spent gas (i.e., gaseous sample post detection) is channeled along the interface between the sensor housing and the endcap(s) prior to venting of the spent gas, for flushing any environmentally introduced target analyte from this interface.

  • Publication number: 20130086972
    Abstract: A method of calibrating a zirconium oxide sensor employing a reference gas having a known mole fraction of oxygen and a monitored gas having a known mole fraction of oxygen, characterized by use of a reference gas and a monitored gas having the same mole fraction of oxygen but different partial pressures of oxygen. This allows a single gas source, such as air, to be used for both the reference gas and the monitored gas across a range of oxygen concentration readings.
