1.3 THEORY OF OPERATION
Electrochemical sensors are fuel cell-like devices consisting of an anode, cathode and electrolyte. The
components of the cell are selected so a subject gas, allowed to diffuse into the cell, will cause a chemical
reaction and generate a current. The cells are diffusion limited so the rate the gas enters the cell is solely
dependent on the gas concentration. The current generated is proportional to the rate of consumption of the
subject gas in the cell.

1.4 MODES OF OPERATION
1.4.1 SENTRY
INTERFACE
IT gas sensor modules can be installed on Sierra Monitor Sentry Model 5000 controllers. The gas sensor
module communicates as a toxic gas sensor module (Type 4 – communication) and are automatically
detected by the Sentry controller. When it is installed in a Sentry system the IT module must have a unique
address which can be established by setting an address between 1 and 8 on the Module Address Switch
