Abstract
The invention concerns a device for continuously monitoring the level of at least one gaseous constituent in a mixture of gases. The drawbacks of the known devices are complexity, high power consumption, large size, and, due to their high mass, non-uniform distribution of temperature, entailing imprecise measurement, and inertia, especially at the commencement of operation. These drawbacks are eliminated with a base in the form of a water with at least two electrodes in the form of separated thin coatings and with a temperature sensor separated from the electrodes on one side and with a heater in the form of an electric-resistance heating coating on the other side.
