Abstract
A gas detector includes a measurement control section that controls a voltage application section, obtains an output current flowing between a first electrode and a second electrode of an electrochemical cell, and detects a concentration of sulfur oxides in exhaust gas based on the output current. The measurement control section uses a minimum value of the output current obtained by using a current detection section in a period in which lowering sweep is executed and in which an applied voltage is a voltage within a detection voltage range that is equal to or lower than a decomposition initiation voltage of sulfur oxides as a parameter used for detection of the concentration of sulfur oxides.
