Dear Stovers, I am going to pilot using a CO sensor made by CITY Technology in the U.K. in my measurements, starting next week. The sensor reads 0-2000 ppm with a resolution of 0.5 ppm. It puts out an analog voltage of 1 mV per ppm. As Tom Reed mentioned a while ago, these electrochemical sensors have cross-sensitivities to other gases. This one appears to have a fairly high sensitivity to ethylene which can be emitted from biofuel combustion. What to do about this? Any cheap sensor seems to be electrochemical, so is there a way to get around the cross-sens problem? I don't have a way to measure ethylene-- obviously, since I'm still working on CO.
