3.6.3 Humidity
Catalytic sensors cannot be operated in a condensing atmosphere or where the relative humidity
exceeds 95%. High humidity and condensation can cause significant changes in sensitivity, which
leads to incorrect gas values being read.
3.6.4 Pressure Effects
Catalytic sensors are sensitive to the effects of pressure and should not be operated outside of their
stated range of ±20 kPa.
3.6.5 Air Velocity
Due to the complex dynamics associated within catalytic elements and particle filters, they are slightly
sensitive to changes in air velocity. The GG2 filter assembly has been designed to greatly minimise this
