ABSTRACT:
This oxygen concentration detector employs an oxygen concentration sensor provided with a plate produced of a material which exhibits ionic conduction for oxygen (An oxygen ionic conductor), a cathode placed on the one surface of the oxygen ionic conductor plate, an anode placed on the other surface of the oxygen ionic conductor plate, and a porous material layer which functions to regulate the flow of oxygen which passes through the porous material layer to reach the cathode and the oxygen ionic conductor plate. The improvement realized in this oxygen concentration detector is to remove a drawback in which the output of this sensor makes an error depending on the temperature of a gas of which the oxygen concentration is measured. This oxygen concentration detector is provided with a limiting electric current type oxygen concentration sensor, a means for applying a voltage to the sensor for the purpose to measure a limiting current flowing in the sensor, a means for measuring a current which flows in the sensor responsive to the application of a voltage to the sensor, a means for measuring the internal resistance of the sensor, and a means for regulating at least one of the foregoing three means including a limiting electric current type oxygen concentration sensor, a means for applying a voltage to the sensor and a means for measuring a current flowing in the sensor, flowing the amount of the internal resistance of the sensor detected by the foregoing means for measuring the internal resistance of the sensor.
