Introducing the SGX SensorTech EC410 Electrochemical Oxygen Sensor SGX electrochemical sensors detect gases by producing a chemical reaction between the gas and oxygen contained in the sensor. This reaction produces a small current, which is proportional to the concentration of the gas present. The sensor is, in effect, a type of fuel cell, hence all electrochemical oxygen sensors are of the self-powered, diffusion limited, metal-air battery type, comprising an anode, a semi-solid electrolyte paste and an air cathode. The cell comprises an enclosure containing two electrodes, a flat PTFE tapeRead More

SGX SensorTech MEMS Pellistor VQ548MP & VQ548MP-DA Pellistors are solid-state devices used to detect gases which are either combustible or which have a significant difference in thermal conductivity to that of air. The detecting elements consist of small ‘pellets’ of catalyst-loaded ceramic whose resistance changes in the presence of the target gas hence the term ‘pellistor’ being a combination of ‘pellet’ and ‘resistor’. The earliest form of catalytic gas sensor used heated bare coils of platinum wire to burn the gas. The heat generated by the burning process produced aRead More

New Integrated Sensor Board for Indoor Air Quality Monitoring from SGX Sensortech   Buy Now Historically, three variables have been used to define indoor air quality; temperature, humidity and CO2. While this is still the case, it is becoming more widely accepted that volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as smoke, cooking odors and outdoor pollutants also impact the air quality. VOCs can also be emitted from building materials, furnishing and operational equipment such as photocopiers. The indoor air we breathe every day has a paramount effect on our health andRead More

  SGX Streamline of Product Range SGX prides itself on the breadth of its product range and consider ourselves to have the widest possible range of sensors to meet customers’ needs. However, we have recently reviewed our portfolio and found that we have a number of products which have been sold in very low quantities over the past few years. In addition, we have a number of electronic products which contain components which are nearing obsolescence. We would like to streamline our product range to maximize efficiency in our factoryRead More
