    摘要: An apparatus for detecting concentrations of a plurality of gas components has a single polarographic sensor capable of detecting an oxygen concentration and a composite concentration of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide gas and steam. A first voltage is applied to the polarographic sensor which then measures only the oxygen concentration, or a second voltage is applied to the sensor which then measures only the composite concentration of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide gas and steam. The first and second voltages are applied to the sensor in a time division manner. Upon application of first and second voltages in such a time division manner, corresponding currents flowing through the sensor are detected to obtain signals corresponding to the oxygen concentration and the composite concentration of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide gas and steam. The signal corresponding to the oxygen concentration is subtracted by an operational amplifier from the signal corresponding to the composite concentration of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide gas and steam, thereby obtaining a signal representing a composite concentration of carbon dioxide gas and steam.

    摘要: A temperature control apparatus detects an actual temperature of an object (e.g., sensor) to be controlled, and compares the actual temperature with a preset target temperature to obtain a difference therebetween, thereby keeping a heater temperature constant. The temperature control apparatus has a temperature rise rate limiter for controlling a temperature rise rate of the object to be controlled so as not to exceed a predetermined temperature rise rate. The object may thus not be damaged by thermal strain which results from a high temperature rise rate.

    摘要: This oxygen concentration detector employs an oxygen concentration sensor provided with a plate produced of a material which exhibits ionic conduction for oxygen (An oxygen ionic conductor), a cathode placed on the one surface of the oxygen ionic conductor plate, an anode placed on the other surface of the oxygen ionic conductor plate, and a porous material layer which functions to regulate the flow of oxygen which passes through the porous material layer to reach the cathode and the oxygen ionic conductor plate. The improvement realized in this oxygen concentration detector is to remove a drawback in which the output of this sensor makes an error depending on the temperature of a gas of which the oxygen concentration is measured. This oxygen concentration detector is provided with a limiting electric current type oxygen concentration sensor, a means for applying a voltage to the sensor for the purpose to measure a limiting current flowing in the sensor, a means for measuring a current which flows in the sensor responsive to the application of a voltage to the sensor, a means for measuring the internal resistance of the sensor, and a means for regulating at least one of the foregoing three means including a limiting electric current type oxygen concentration sensor, a means for applying a voltage to the sensor and a means for measuring a current flowing in the sensor, flowing the amount of the internal resistance of the sensor detected by the foregoing means for measuring the internal resistance of the sensor.
