Zusammenfassung: | An electrochemical sensor for measuring contents of a fluid or gas at high pressure and/or high temperature, for use, for example, in a wellbore for hydrocarbon applications, is provided. The sensor includes: a bulkhead-like electrode assembly including a cylindrical housing and a cylindrical electrode structure. The cylindrical electrode structure includes a cylindrical conductive pin extending from a high pressure region to a low pressure region and an electrode connected to one end of the pin at the high pressure region and having an electrode surface for exposure to a flow path of the fluid or gas in the high pressure region. At least a part of the surface of the pin is protected from direct contact with the fluid or the gas by an insulating coating impermeable to the fluid or gas. The pin may include an alternating pattern of protruding and receded portions. |
