Zusammenfassung:An instrument for the detection and measurement of the carbon monoxide content of gases, particularly in automobile exhaust, wherein CO is reacted with water to form CO2 and hydrogen ions and producing a voltage change which is proportional to the CO content of the gas under suitable conditions. The reaction takes place in an aqueous solution and employs suitable oxidizing agents amd a palladium salt catalyst.
