NOx sensors primarily utilize electrochemical principles to measure nitrogen oxide (NOx) concentrations in exhaust gases. The core component is a yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramic electrolyte, which exhibits high ionic conductivity at elevated temperatures (typically 400–800°C).
NOx-sensitive electrodes: Specialized catalytic materials (e.g., metal oxides) on the sensor surface selectively react with NOx molecules, generating electrical signals proportional to NOx concentration.
Oxygen reference cell: A separate chamber with a reference oxygen level ensures accurate differentiation between NOx and residual oxygen in the exhaust.
Advanced models integrate self-diagnostic systems to monitor sensor health and ensure real-time compliance with emission standards (e.g., Euro 6, EPA Tier 4).
Post-SCR NOx Sensor: Monitors post-treatment NOx levels to evaluate SCR efficiency (≥95% conversion rate in China VI/EPA-compliant systems) and triggers OBD alerts for malfunctions.
CAN communication: Enables seamless integration with vehicle/industrial control systems for closed-loop emission management.
