    摘要: An oxygen concentration sensing apparatus includes an oxygen pump element and a sensor cell element with a pair of electrodes respectively, being disposed to face each other, to form a restricted region between them, and a current source for supplying a pump current across the electrodes the oxygen pump element. A limit voltage is adjustably set in response to a voltage across the electrodes of the oxygen pump element, and the pump current supplied to the oxygen pump element is reduced when a voltage generated across the electrodes of the sensor cell element has exceeded the limit voltage.

    摘要: An apparatus for sensing the concentration of oxygen in a gas such as engine exhaust gas includes an oxygen concentration sensor formed of an oxygen pump element and a sensor cell element, each based on a solid electrolytic member formed of a material such as ZrO.sub.2, and is provided with a limiter circuit which functions to reduce the level of current supplied to the oxygen pump element when a voltage produced by the sensor cell element indicates that this current level is such as to produce a "blackening" phenomenon whereby deterioration of the oxygen pump element will occur and oxygen concentration sensing reliability will be lowered. The apparatus also includes a delay circuit which functions such that a reduction of the oxygen pump element current level is delayed by a predetermined time interval, after an increase of the sensor cell element voltage to the "blanking" region is detected, thereby preventing fluctuations in the oxygen pump element current level due to transient increases in sensor cell element voltage and increasing the sensing reliability.
