Abstract
A system and method of detecting the end of useful life in a gas sensor cell having a cathode, anode, one of which is consumable, and an electrolyte, and a circuit for controlling the flow of gas to the cell and a sensing resistor and circuit connected to said cathode and said anode, the consumable electrode is provided in the form of a plurality of discrete elements which are sequentially connected in circuit with the other electrode, sensing resistor and circuit. A drop in current between respective ones of the consumable electrode is an indication of the approach of the end of the useful life of the gas sensor.
