Abstract
A first gas sensor includes a main pump cell that pumps oxygen inside a main oxygen concentration adjustment chamber, by applying a main pump voltage between a main interior side electrode and an exterior side electrode, and causing a main pump current to flow, a preliminary pump cell that pumps the oxygen inside a preliminary adjustment chamber by applying a preliminary pump voltage between an interior side preliminary electrode and the exterior side electrode, and causing a preliminary pump current to flow, and a constant control unit that controls the preliminary pump voltage of the preliminary pump cell in a manner so that the main pump current of the main pump cell becomes constant.
