Ozone (O3) is an inorganic molecule which in its pure form is a pale blue gas with a distinctively pungent smell. As ozone mixes with other pollutants, it takes a form which is often referred to as ‘Smog’. Whether in its pure form or mixed with other chemicals, ozone can be harmful to health. When inhaled, ozone can damage the lungs and relatively low amounts of ozone can cause chest pain, coughing, shortness of breath and throat irritation. We produce Ozone Sensors (O3 Sensors) in a number of form factors and in both PPM and PPB variants. Our Ozone sensors are high-quality, high-accuracy and robust enough for a variety of industrial applications. Alphasense O3 Sensors Alphasense 4-electrode air quality sensors provides OEMs with reliable sensors for use in Air Quality Networks where very low parts per billion (ppb) detection levels are required. High sensor gain, fourth electrode compensation, advanced filtering (patents pending) and electrodes optimised for long term repeatability provide the needed sensitivity, selectivity and stability. With over eight years’ experience working with air quality networks, Alphasense is your partner when developing and supplying air quality networks. Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) and Ozone (O3) are the two critical oxidising gases when monitoring air quality. Both gases cause oxidative stress to lung cells but the regulated levels are different so it is important to separate Ozone (O3) and Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) concentrations.
