Figaro's TGS5342 is a battery operable electrochemical sensor which offers several advantages over traditional electrochemical sensors. Its electrolyte is environmentally friendly, it poses no risk of electrolyte leakage, can detect concentrations as high as 1% CO, operates in a range from -5˚ and +55˚C, and it has lower sensitivity to interferant gases. With a long life, good long term stability, and high accuracy, this sensor is the ideal choice for CO detectors with digital display. OEM customers will find individual sensors data printed on each sensor in bar code from, enabling users to skip the costly gas calibration process and allowing for individual sensor tracking. The length of TGS5342 is 60% of the TGS5042.

) Should water in the reservoir freeze very rapidly (as typically occurs only under artificially created conditions), irreversible change to sensor characteristics would occur. To avoid this risk, it is recommended that the senor be positioned with the cap (working electrode) facing up.
