Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for monitoring hydrogen and optionally a non-hydrogen gas including carbon monoxide. The method and apparatus includes a sensor assembly consisting of a plurality of electrochemical cells sequentially arranged in a path of the hydrogen-containing gas stream. Reaction and consumption of hydrogen at catalytically reactive surface areas of the cells generates a current which is proportional to the amount of hydrogen in the gas stream entering the sensor.
