ABSTRACT:
A chloramine amperometric sensor includes a sensor body with an electrolyte disposed inside the sensor body. A membrane is coupled to the sensor body and adapted to pass chloramine therethrough. A reference electrode is disposed in the electrolyte and coupled to a first conductor. A second conductor is coupled to a working electrode that is disposed proximate the membrane. The working electrode is constructed from a noble metal in non-compact form. The non-compact form can be a Gas Diffusion Electrode, which can include metal mesh, carbon paper, carbon cloth, metal/carbon powder loaded on a porous membrane or any combination thereof.
