With fuel prices rising, the need for accurate air/fuel mixture monitoring is more important than ever. The engine computer needs to know what the fuel mixture is with a high degree of precision so it ...

Thought’s not the only maker of planar oxygen sensors– virtually every major supplier manufactures them for their OE customers–the announcement by Delphi that it would be offering planar oxygen ...

An exhaust gas oxygen sensor, also known as lambda sensor, is a device for measuring the oxygen proportion in the exhaust gas being analyzed. The sensor is part of the emissions control system and ...

The operation of biomass treatment devices such as gasifiers is based on the control of key parameters that play an important role in product formation. These include: temperature, excess oxygen, ...

Compared with the LSF4.2, it takes half as much time to reach control mode following engine start. This significantly reduces the amount of time in which the engine’s emissions are uncontrolled.

While oxygen sensors have been an indelible part of automotive technology for decades, the technology continues to evolve. In general, an O2 sensor relies on the fact that when the zirconium dioxide ...

Q:Hi James. I keep having an oxygen sensor fault code for a lean exhaust with my '97 Corvette. I've taken the vehicle to the dealer several times but the problem keeps recurring. I would like to try ...

The days of the zirconia upstream oxygen sensor are behind us. Vehicle manufacturers have moved to what is commonly known as the air/fuel ratio sensor, or AFS. With the change in technology has come a ...

A few weeks ago, I visited a plant in Anderson, S.C., run by Robert Bosch Corporation, which builds oxygen sensors for automotive engine management systems. If you're thinking that a tour of a factory ...
