Amphenol SGX Sensortech VQ23 Combustible Gas Detector Elements

Amphenol SGX Sensortech VQ23 Combustible Gas Detector Elements are improved poison-resistant sensors consisting of two matched elements that are used for the detection of combustible gases, particularly methane in air mixtures with concentrations from 0.1% upwards. The VQ23 components have no interference from water vapor or carbon dioxide. Using the recommended bridge circuit and the suggested mounting arrangement, the minimum sensitivity is 10mV/% methane. The VQ23 has been designed for use in atmospheres where traces of silicone and other poisoning agents may be present.
