    摘要: A gas sensor for detecting particles in a gas stream has a first electrochemical pump cell, which has a measuring chamber in which a first electrode is disposed to pump particles between the first measuring chamber and the gas stream. Furthermore, a second electrochemical pump cell is provided, which has a second measuring chamber in which a second electrode is disposed so as to pump particles. The second measuring chamber is connected to the gas stream via an absorber medium for absorption of the particles to be detected. This makes it possible to absorb the particles to be detected in a first operating mode using the absorber medium, and to desorb the absorbed particles in a second operating mode, and to detect the quantity of the desorbed particles. Thus, the gas sensor is able to take even low concentrations into account, and short-term measuring errors do not have such a serious effect.

    摘要: A gas sensor 10 for detecting particles in a gas stream has a first electrochemical pump cell 14, which has a measuring chamber 16 in which a first electrode 18 is disposed to pump particles between the first measuring chamber 16 and the gas stream. Furthermore, a second electrochemical pump cell 20 is provided, which has a second measuring chamber 22 in which a second electrode 24 is disposed so as to pump particles. According to the invention, the second measuring chamber 22 is connected to the gas stream via an absorber medium 34 for absorption of the particles to be detected. This makes it possible to absorb the particles to be detected in a first operating mode using the absorber medium 34, and to desorb the absorbed particles in a second operating mode, and to detect the quantity of the desorbed particles. Thus, the gas sensor 10 is able to take even low concentrations into account, and short-term measuring errors do not have such a serious effect.

    摘要: The invention relates to a gas sensor for determining the oxygen concentration in a gas mixture, especially in the exhaust gas of internal combustion engines. Said gas sensor comprises a pump cell having an outer pump electrode, exposed to the gas mixture, and an inner pump electrode, exposed to the gas mixture via a diffusion barrier, and a solid electrolyte body interposed between the outer pump electrode and the inner pump electrode. The gas sensor also has a reference electrode, exposed to a reference gas, and a sensor heating device. The outer pump electrode is connected to a circuit arrangement via a pump current line, the inner pump electrode via a measuring line, the reference electrode via a reference current line and the sensor heating device via two heating lines. The invention is characterized in that the pump current line and one heating line are electrically interconnected and grounded, the pump current can be supplied via the measuring line and the Nernst voltage can be tapped between the measuring line and the reference pump current line and the reference pump current flows from the reference electrode to the outer pump electrode.

    摘要: Disclosed is a gas sensor, particularly a lambda probe, for determining the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine that is operated using a fuel-air mixture. Said gas sensor comprises a pump cell with an outer electrode that is exposed to the exhaust gas, an inner electrode located in a measuring chamber which is separated from the exhaust gas by means of a first diffusion barrier, and an electronic circuit for generating a voltage applied between the outer electrode and the inner electrode as well as for measuring and evaluating a pump current that is generated in said process in order to draw a conclusion therefrom about the composition of the fuel-air mixture. The inventive gas sensor is characterized in that the outer electrode is arranged in an independent measuring volume which is separated by means of an additional, second diffusion barrier whose coefficient of diffusion is different from that of the first diffusion barrier while the circuit is configured so as to preferably repeatedly reverse the polarity of the voltage.
