General Information

The P.A.S. Platinum Electrochemical Fuel Cells are available in different fuel cell case designs. Also, PAS Systems International, Inc. will load your fuel cell case, test and provide typical test conditions and specifications. A Fuel Cell sensor is an electrochemical device in which the substance of interest, in this case alcohol, undergoes a chemical oxidation reaction at a catalytic electrode surface (platinum) to generate a quantitative electrical response. By careful electrode design and catalyst selection, the fuel cell chemistry can be geared to work only with a limited range of fuel substances. This high level of analytical specificity is one of the positive features of the fuel cell sensors.

Platinum electrochemical fuel cells are recommended as the analytical sensor in instruments intended for both screening and evidential testing applications.
