COMPONENT FOR MEASURING GAS CONCENTRATIONS

摘要

The invention relates to a component for gas analysis, comprising a sensor element and a stable, at least partly conductive support element with which the sensor element is connected in an electrically conductive manner. The support element has several connecting contacts so as to connect the sensor element with an evaluation circuit. The support element and the sensor element are surrounded with a first material from which at least the connecting contacts of the support element protrude. The physical form of the resulting component is selected such as to allow for automatic insertion of printed circuit boards. In addition, a second partially permeable material is arranged in at least one window area of the component, by means of which a surrounding gas enters into contact with a sensitive area of the sensor element.
