  • Wideband O2 Sensors and Air/Fuel (A/F) Sensors
    Home, Auto Repair Library, Auto Parts, Accessories, Tools, Manuals & Books, Car BLOG, Links, Index Wideband O2 Sensors and Air/Fuel (A/F) Sensors by Larry Carley copyright 2019 AA1Car.com Wideband Oxygen sensors (which may also be called Wide Range Air Fuel (WRAF) sensors) and Air/Fuel (A/F) Sensors, are replacing conventional oxygen sensors in many late model vehicles. A wideband O2 sensor or A/F sensor is essentially a smarter oxygen sensor with some additional internal circuitry that allows it to precisely determine the exact air/fuel ratio of the engine. Like an ordinary oxygen sensor, it reacts to changing oxygen levels in the exhaust. But unlike an ordinary oxygen sensor, the output signal from a wideband O2 sensor or A/F sensor does not change abruptly when the air/fuel mixture goes rich or lean. This makes it better suited to today's low emission engines, and also for tuning performance engines. Oxygen Sensor Outputs An ordinary oxygen sensor is really more of a rich/lean indicator because its output voltage jumps up to 0.8 to 0.9 volts when the air/fuel mixture is rich, and drops to 0.3 volts or less when the air/fuel mixture is lean. By comparison, a wideband O2 sensor or A/F sensor provides a gradually changing current signal that corresponds to the exact air/fuel ratio. Another difference is that the sensor's output voltage is converted by its internal circuitry into a variable current signal that can travel in one of two directions (positive or negative).

  • Oxygen Sensor Oxygen This Sensor Is a Galvanic Cell Type Oxygen Sensor That
    Oxygen Sensor Oxygen This sensor is a galvanic cell type oxygen sensor that measure oxygen gas (O2) in air. It has a lead anode, a gold cathode, an acid electrolyte, and a Teflon membrane. The Sensor current flow between the electrodes is proportional to the oxygen concentration being measured. An internal bridge resistor is used to provide a mV output. Unlike polargraphic oxygen sensors, they do not require a power supply. The accompanying temperature sensor and resistance heater (inside the same housing) do require power as listed on page 8. The internal micro-heater serves to prevent condensation on the sensing membrane in high humidity applications. Owners Manual The mV output responds to the partial pressure of oxygen in air. The standard units for partial pressure are kPa. However, Model: O2S gas sensors that respond to partial pressure are typically calibrated to read out in mole fraction of the gas in air, or units -D or -F of moles of oxygen per mole of air. These units can be directly converted to % O2 in air, or ppm O2 in air. The concentration -S or -FR of oxygen in our atmosphere is 20.9476 %, and this precise percentage has not changed for decades. It is also constant -TM or -TC across changing temperatures or pressures. This allows for precise calibration of the instrument.
