Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of environmental monitoring, in particular to a three-electrode electrochemical sensor. Background Art

[0002] Electrochemical sensors are widely used in air quality monitoring and can effectively detect the presence of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur oxides, which is crucial for environmental protection and public health. When the three-electrode electrochemical sensor is performing air monitoring, air enters the main housing through the air inlet below the breathable membrane, and after being filtered, reacts with the electrolyte in the main housing. With the coordinated work of the three electrodes, the concentration of harmful gases in the air is obtained.

[0003] The breathable membrane at the air inlet of the existing three-electrode electrochemical sensor has a primary filtration effect because it is in direct contact with the air, but it needs to be cleaned after long-term use. After multiple cleanings, the breathable membrane material is damaged and needs to be replaced in time. The breathable membrane is installed from the inside, and the upper cover needs to be removed when replaced. This operation will damage the sealing between the main shell and the upper cover, and other components may be damaged due to errors during disassembly. Utility Model Content
