SGX Solid Polymer Electrolyte Gas Sensors
The SGX series of PS1 and PS4 Electrochemical gas sensors are using a revolutionary ‘Solid Polymer
Electrolyte’ technology that is based on the principle of catalytic reaction. The target gas to be measured
generates a very small current, proportional to the gas concentration. Our technology oers a stable, high
quality and cost-eective manufacturing process. The SGX solid polymer electrolyte gas sensors are
available in a very small size, are highly sensitive, do not use power and have very low cross sensitivity
from other gases.

Important Notes
All performance is based on conditions at 20°C,
50% RH and 1 atm, ow rate>150qcm/min,
using SGX recommended circuitry.
Sensor performance is temperature dependant;
please contact SGX for temperature
performance other than 20°C.
Do not solder to the connector pins as this may
damage the sensor and thereby invalidate the
warranty.
Details on recommended connector pins can be
found in the Frequently Asked Questions within
the Gas Sensor section of the SGX website.
