Product catalog summary
Introduction to Oxygen Sensors:
The document introduces two types of oxygen sensors used in ventilator applications: ultrasonic and electro-chemical. The electrochemical sensor operates by measuring the current generated when oxygen dissolves in an electrolytic solution, which is proportional to the oxygen concentration. The ultrasonic sensor uses flow detection theory, where the velocity of ultrasonic waves in a fluid is influenced by the fluid's velocity, allowing for the measurement of flow rate and concentration based on sound speed variations in different gas compositions.

Advantages and Disadvantages:
  • Ultrasonic Sensor: Advantages include stability, no need for calibration, long lifetime, and the ability to measure both concentration and flow. However, it is limited to binary gases and can be affected by moisture.
  • Electrochemical Sensor: It has low power consumption and high sensitivity but suffers from a short lifespan (approximately 2 years), high cost, and large drift. It only measures gas concentration.


Test Report:
The document includes a test report comparing the ultrasonic sensor (Gasboard7500C) and the electrochemical sensor (PSR-917-M).

Conclusion:
The conclusion highlights the advantages of the ultrasonic oxygen sensor, such as no need for routine calibration, long lifespan, high stability, and the capability to measure both oxygen concentration and flow simultaneously.
