2-2 2 Operational Theory Model 3300 PA Teledyne Analytical Instruments Micro-Fuel Cell is therefore a hybrid between a battery and a true fuel cell. (All of the reactants are stored externally in a true fuel cell.) 2.2.2 A natomy of a Micro-Fuel Cell The Micro-Fuel Cell is made of extremely inert plastic (which can be placed confidently in practica[...]

2-3 Percent Oxygen Analyzer Operational Theory 2 Teledyne Analytical Instruments The space between the active elements is filled by a structure saturated with electrolyte. Cathode and anode are wet by this common pool. They each have a conductor connecting them, through some electrical circuitry, to one of the external contacts in the connector rec[...]

2-4 2 Operational Theory Model 3300 PA Teledyne Analytical Instruments If the pressure changes, the rate that oxygen reaches the cathode through the diffusing membrane will also increase. The electron transfer, and therefore the external current, will increase, even though the proportion of oxygen has not changed. Fortunately, Dalton's Law con[...]

2-5 Percent Oxygen Analyzer Operational Theory 2 Teledyne Analytical Instruments 2.3 Electronics 2.3.1 General The signal processing uses an Intel  microcontroller with on-board RAM and ROM to control all signal processing, input/output, and display functions for the analyzer. System power is supplied from a universal power supply module designe[...]

2-6 2 Operational Theory Model 3300 PA Teledyne Analytical Instruments In the presence of oxygen the cell generates a current. This current flows through an internal thermistor compensation network. The output of the sensor is converted to voltage in the millivolt range. This output is fed to a voltage amplifier. The internal thermistor network pro[...]
