Product Overview
The SX-GCCSA Series is a catalytic combustion combustible gas sensor consisting of a paired sensing element and compensation element. Each element is formed from a platinum wire coil coated with catalyst or inert material. Combustible gas undergoes catalytic combustion on the active sensing element, increasing its resistance and changing the bridge output voltage. The voltage change is approximately linear with combustible gas concentration. The compensation element provides reference compensation for ambient temperature and humidity
Main Features

Linear Bridge Output —— Voltage output varies linearly with gas concentration
-
Fast Response —— Quick response to combustible gas exposure
-
Good Repeatability & Selectivity —— Consistent, selective gas response
-
Stable & Reliable Operation —— Stable element performance over service life
-
Excellent Poison Resistance —— Strong resistance to H₂S and silicone poisoning
