PID Analyzers, LLC copyright 2003-2013

Types of Sensors-LEL

LEL Two heated catalytic elements are set in a block; one is sealed; the other is in contact with the sample. Each is in a leg of a Wheatstone Bridge circuit. If the sample contains hydrocarbons or combustible inorganic compounds, they will burn increasing the temperature of the sensors and changing the resistance. The change in resistance is proportional to the concentration.
