O2 sensor #14

Open racleave opened 4 years ago

racleave commented 4 years ago

The O2 sensor I bought is 2-wire. I wish I'd bought the 3 or 4 wire version, as the 2-wire version doesn't have a heater and they need to come up to 300 deg C before they work.

Will look at pulling one out of a local car (Jon's, Kylie's, Steffan's, Jo's, in that order).

Until then we can use the 2-wire one as the mechanical template.

If we can't get an O2 sensor working, we may be able to use the computer to:

Even if this works we will still need to verify it is working. I woke up thinking about checking the colour and sound of the flame when mixed with a bit of LPG, but there must be some reason they say no smoking near these machines...

hot wire anemometers too? pity since measuring O2:air flow was my 1st thought. Just how hard is it to burn metal in pure O2?
