Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of measuring the content of oil vapor or other hydrocarbons in gas, more specifically, a measuring device and method for measuring the content of oil vapor or other hydrocarbons in gas. Background technique
[0002] To detect gases, such as hydrocarbons in air or compressed air, various sensing technologies exist. Such measuring devices are known with various sensor technologies and are used to detect, for example, the content of oil, hydrocarbons and oxidizable gases in air or compressed air.
[0003] For example, one common approach is to use electrically heated semiconducting oxide materials. The semiconductor oxide changes its resistance in a heated state according to the amount of hydrocarbons contained in the air. The most important advantages of metal-oxide-semiconductor gas sensors include: very high sensitivity and thus the possibility of being able to measure even the tiniest hydrocarbon content down to th...
