Sulfur Dioxide is a toxic gas having a burnt odor. The odor of sulfur dioxide is similar to that of nitric acid. The gas is acidic erosive and is capable to form dangerous compounds like sulfuric acid and sulfate pollutants by reacting with atmospheric compounds. The sources that release sulfur dioxide in nature are fossil fuel burning, power plants, metal extraction, volcanoes, industrial facilities, different vehicular emissions, refining and extraction of oil, and diesel engines. However, the push toward BSVI engines by Indian Government has made a significant impact. 

Why To Choose Qsafe SO2 Sensor?

Compact

The compact size of the sensor enables it to be installed into any kind of setting, big or small, allowing it to be versatile in handheld as well as stationary devices.

Durable

The SO2 sensor comes with a long life of almost 10 years. With this kind of longevity, there is no need to worry about calibration and breakdown.

Highly Responsive

Qsafe SO2sensor is not only precise but swift too with an average response time of 15 seconds.

Energy Efficient

With our sensors, there is no need to worry about energy consumption as not only they are accurate but energy saving too.

Individual Calibrated

Sulfur Dioxide sensors are calibrated for every device before integration for providing accurate observation.

RoHS Compliant

The sensor is in compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) for electrical and electronic equipment.

What technology is being used in SO2 Sensor?

Qsafe provides the best in class air quality monitoring solutions providing accurate observations. Our monitors use an electrochemical sensor for so2 monitoring which is the most sought after monitoring among different monitoring processes. Our SO2 sensor works on the principle of the electrochemical gas sensing technique. These sensors are amperometric fuel cells designed to quantify the concentration of a gaseous toxin.

The technique involves three components out of which two are electrodes (working and counter) and the other is an ion conductor. The ion conductor is the bridge for electrodes. When SO2 passes through the sensor a current is generated between the electrodes due to oxidation and reduction reaction. The current generated is directly proportional to the concentration of SO2 present.

SO2 Sensor Calibration

Calibration of so2 sensor is comparing the standard measurement with your device’s measurement. To calibrate the sensor, 23 + 3oC temperature, 50 + 15% relative humidity, 0.9-1.1atm pressure and air velocity of 0.05m/s were used as standard environmental conditions. The accuracy and traceability of measurement are also determined by calibration. For calibration, the NIST standard of gas cylinder is used for reference.
