CO as reducing gas in process control, concentration measurement, etc. H 2, H 2 S gas concentration check in tanker crude oil tanker, or volcanic like in such H 2 S gas concentration measurement of a gas, the percent level high It could not be used to measure the concentration of gas. That is, in the conventional potentiostatic gas sensor, the working electrode is bonded to the gas-permeable porous membrane, so that the introduced measurement target gas permeates the porous membrane without being controlled, and Current flows between the counter electrode and the counter electrode.

As the gas-permeable non-porous membrane 12, a polymer membrane generally used as a gas separation membrane, for example, a fluororesin, a polyalkylene resin, a polydimethylsiloxane resin, or the like is used. Among these, from the viewpoints of chemical resistance, solvent resistance, weather resistance and the like, fluororesins, for example, ethylene tetrafluoride-propylene hexafluoride copolymer (FEP), polyvinyl fluoride (PVF), polyvinylidene fluoride ( PVDF), perfluoroalkoxy fluororesin (PFA), ethylene-

A composite film may be used.

When a gas to be measured is introduced from the air supply path 19 into the thus-configured constant potential electrolytic gas sensor of the present invention, the gas to be measured enters the gas chamber 18. However,
Since the gas chamber 18 and the working electrode 6 are separated by the gas permeable non-porous membrane 12, the gas entering the gas chamber 18 depends on the gas permeability of the gas permeable non-porous membrane 12. Only the accumulated gas reaches the working electrode 6 and is oxidized or reduced to generate a current between the gas and the counter electrode.

The amount of gas permeating the gas permeable non-porous membrane 12 is expressed by the following equation. Q = (P / L) (p 1 −p 2 ) At In the above equation, Q is the gas permeation amount, P is the gas permeation coefficient, p 1 and p 2 are the partial pressure of the gas supplied to the membrane and the pressure of the membrane, respectively. The partial pressure of the gas on the permeation side, L is the film thickness, A is the permeation area, and t is the time. The gas permeability coefficient is a unique value depending on the combination of the material of the membrane and the gas. Therefore, the material of the gas-permeable non-porous membrane 12 may be selected according to the gas to be measured and according to the concentration to be measured. Further, the concentration range that can be measured can be adjusted by changing the film thickness, the area of the film, and the supply pressure of the gas to be measured.
