Product catalog summary
Performance Specifications
Sensitivity for NO detection ranges from 250 to 425 nA/ppm at 2ppm NO. The response time to reach 90% of the final value from zero to 2ppm NO is less than 25 seconds. Zero current in zero air at 20°C is between 10 to 80 nA, with noise levels at ±2 standard deviations equivalent to 80 ppb. The sensor's performance warranty covers up to 20 ppm NO, with linearity error at full scale being less than ±1 ppb. The overgas limit for stable response is 50 ppm.

Lifetime and Drift
The zero drift is 0 to 50 ppb equivalent change per year in lab air, while sensitivity drift is 0 to -20% change per year. The operating life is warranted for more than 24 months until the signal reduces to 50% of the original.

Environmental Conditions
Sensitivity at -20°C is 35 to 60% of the output at 20°C, and at 50°C, it is 120 to 135%. Zero current changes from 20°C are -10 to -50 nA at -20°C and 200 to 350 nA at 50°C.

Cross Sensitivity
The sensor shows less than 20% sensitivity to 5ppm H2S, less than 7% to 5ppm NO2, less than 4% to 5ppm Cl2 and SO2, and less than 0.1% to 100ppm H2, 5ppm NH3, and 5% Vol CO2. Halothane sensitivity at 100ppm is less than 0.1%.

Key Specifications
The bias voltage is +200 mV, with an operating temperature range of -30 to 50°C, pressure range of 80 to 120 kPa, and humidity range of 15 to 85% rh. The storage period is 6 months at 3 to 20°C in a sealed pot. The recommended load resistor is 33 to 100 Ω, and the sensor weighs less than 6 grams.

Additional Information
All sensors are tested under ambient conditions with a 10 ohm load resistor unless otherwise stated. Customers are advised to test sensors under their own conditions to ensure suitability. For disposal instructions, contact Alphasense or its distributor. For further information, visit the Alphasense website.
