Function

 

Step change sensor

  • Measures the residual oxygen content of the exhaust gas.
  • Generates a voltage of between approx. 25 and 900 mV corresponding to the oxygen content of the exhaust gas when warm (350 °C).
  • Compares the residual oxygen content of the exhaust gas to the oxygen content of the ambient air.
  • Detects the transition from rich mixture
    (air deficiency λ < 1) to lean mixture
    (excess air λ > 1) and vice versa.

Wideband sensor

  • Measures the residual oxygen content of the exhaust gas.
  • Ensures extremely accurate measurement in both the rich and the lean range. It has a broader measuring range
    of 0.7 < λ < ∞ (air).
  • Also suitable for use in diesel and gas engines.
