The CS 30 sensor was subjected to the conditions listed in the table below. For reference purposes, each type of test is associated with a number between 1 and 16 (see diagram below).
1 120 h in tap water 9 1 h in acetone
2 1 h in motor oil 10W-40 at 80°C 10 72 h in water at 93°C
3 1 h in 2-butanone 11 1 h in xylene
4 1 h in ethanol 12 1 h in pyrrolidone
5 1 h in ethylene glycol 13 1 h in butyl acetate
6 1 h in ethyl acetate 14 1 h in hydrochloric acid 5%
7 1 h in isopropanol 15 260 h in 1000 ppm ammonia
8 1 h in dipropyl ether 16 260 h in 1000 ppm chlorine
Prior to each test, the sensor was measured in a humidity generator both at 10 %RH and 80 %RH. After each test, the sensor was cleaned for 3 minutes with distilled water in an ultrasonic bath and then dried at 140°C
for 25 minutes. Sensor response was measured again in the humidity generator, both at 10 %RH and 80 %RH. Deviation from the original sensor response is reported in the diagram below:
