KGZ-10 Series Oxygen Sensors DESCRIPTION A heat element produces the 700 C 1292 F required for the The KGZ-10 is a high-accuracy, zirconia-based oxygen sensor. The ability of the sensor to operate without any reference gas ZrO2 to operate as an O2 pump. The time taken for the pump to makes it ideal for potential applications such as combustion achieve specific minimum and maximum pressures within this control or aircraft oxygen generation systems. chamber is a measure of the partial oxygen pressure of the environment. The sensor employs two ZrO2 discs with a small hermetically sealed chamber in between. One of the discs functions as a The KGZ-10 has to be operated by an electronic measuring reversible oxygen pump, which is used to successively fill and circuit that controls the sensor operation and signal processing. This circuit can either be incorporated into the customer s own empty the chamber. The second disc measures the ratio of the partial pressure difference and generates a corresponding electronics, or be purchased as a separate interface board sense voltage. from Honeywell. FEATURES POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS High-accuracy measurement Boiler combustion controls Low power consumption Aircraft oxygen generation systems No reference gas required Linear output signal No need for temperature stabilization Function testing and calibration in ambient air Long life KGZ-10 Series Table 1.
