Cross-Sensitivity Data

The AO2 CiTiceL is designed to be highly specific to Oxygen, but it may respond to other gases present in automotive exhaust.

Interfering Gas Concentration Balance % O2 Equivalent
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 16% N2 < 0.1%
Carbon Monoxide (CO) 6% N2 < 0.1%
Nitric Oxide (NO) 3000 ppm N2 < 0.1%
n-Hexane 2000 ppm N2 < 0.1%
Hydrogen (H2) 5000 ppm N2 < 0.1%

Installation & Safety Notes

  • Installation: Hand-tighten only. Do not use spanners or mechanical aids, as excessive force may damage the sensor thread.

  • Soldering: DO NOT solder to the connector pins. Connection must be made via PCB sockets or the recommended Molex mating parts to avoid internal damage.

  • Chemical Exposure: Avoid high concentrations of solvent vapors during storage and installation. Do not use glue directly on or near the sensor.

  • Safety Check: This is a safety-critical component. It is required to perform a “bump check” (exposure to target gas) before each use to ensure proper functionality.
