MPS sensors detect gases by measuring changes in the thermodynamic properties of the air/gas mixture, such as thermal conductivity and heat capacity. The sensor uses a micro-machined membrane with a Joule heater and a resistance thermometer to detect these changes. Advanced algorithms then calculate the gas concentration and classify the type of gas. MPS sensors automatically adjust for environmental factors in real time, do not require calibration throughout their lifespan, and are highly resistant to poisoning, making them more accurate and reliable over time.
