Gas analysis sensor arrangement with temperature control
A sensor arrangement for analyzing gas for predetermined gas components has been filed for a patent. The arrangement includes an electrochemical sensor with measuring and counter electrodes, electrical contacts, and an electrolyte. Additionally, a temperature sensor unit with a temperature sensor and an electrically conductive measuring element is included. The measuring element has a contact segment in thermal contact with a measurement object of the electrochemical sensor. The temperature sensor measures a variable correlating with the contact segment temperature, allowing for the determination of the temperature of the measuring electrode and/or counter electrode based on the measured variable.
Furthermore, the sensor arrangement may include a controllable heater and a signal processing control unit to maintain the temperature within a predetermined range. The heater can be a radiation source emitting electromagnetic radiation towards the electrodes, with the control unit adjusting the intensity based on signals from the temperature sensor unit. Additionally, a cooling system can be included to cool the electrodes, with the control unit controlling the system based on temperature sensor signals. The process for analyzing gas involves using the sensor arrangement to measure detection variables correlated with gas presence or concentration, along with temperature measurements to determine electrode temperatures and control heating or cooling systems to maintain desired temperature ranges.
