Generic Sensor Board for Oxygen Sensors by SENSORE Electronic - GSB

Product Specification

Generic Sensor Board
"GSB" (Generic Sensor Board) is a universal electronic module for all sensor types. It can be used both for controlling the amperometric and potentiometric sensors.

At this module, sensor temperature is precisely controlled to a constant temperature by microcontroller. The linearized output signal is available as a voltage signal (0-5V), current signal (4-20mA) or digital via RS232.

Electronic sensor interface for oxygen sensors
? Sensor interface board for direct integration in customer application
