AGING DEVICE OF CONSTANT ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL ELECTROLYSIS GAS SENSOR AND AGING METHOD OF CONSTANT ELECTRICAL POTENTIAL ELECTROLYSIS GAS SENSOR

摘要

An aging device according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a manipulation and measurement part performing application of potential between at least any one of a counter electrode and a reference electrode provided in a constant-potential electrolytic gas sensor and a working electrode provided in the constant-potential electrolytic gas sensor and measurement of an electric current flowing between the working electrode and the counter electrode; and a control part which calculates the potential at a start of the flow of the electric current between the working electrode and the counter electrode and controls the manipulation and measurement part such that potential higher than the potential at the start of the flow of the electric current is applied between at least any one of the counter electrode and the reference electrode and the working electrode.
