Activation furnance for electrochemical sensors

The activation furnance is a device used for curing individual sensors of the AC1 type. At a defined temperature (up to 1000 °C) depending on the electrode and sensor materials. When the sensor is cured, the surface of the electrodes is cleaned from surface oxides and organic impurities, which results in regeneration of the sensor or its activation. In this way, for example, old sensors with immobilized enzyme layers can be cured for reuse – see example at the end ot the document.
