Oxygen sensor: Operating specifications 
Linearity deviation  Linear in the range of > 1 vol.% of O

Repeatability  ≤ 0.5 % of span 
Zero drift  Stable in the long-term due to absolute zero point 
Sensitivity drift  ≤ 1 % of the measured value per week   
Output fluctuation (2 
σ) 
≤ 0.2 % of span at electronic T90 time (static/dynamic)= 5/0 s 
Detection limit (4 
σ) 
≤ 0.4 % of span at electronic T90 time (static/dynamic)= 5/0 s 
Flow influence  Flow rate in 20 to 100 l/h: ≤ 2 % of the span 
Temperature influence  Ambient temperature in permissible range: ≤ 0.2 vol.% of O

 per 10 °C 
Air pressure effect  At zero point: no influence effect;   
On sensitivity without pressure correction: ≤ 1 % of the measured value per 
1 % air pressure change;   
On sensitivity with pressure correction: ≤ 0.2 % of the measured value per 
1 % air pressure change. 
Pressure correction is only possible if the oxygen sensor is connected to an 
analyzer module with an integral pressure sensor. Pressure sensor working
