Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ #1 Which oxygen sensor cell is recommended for use with the VR3?

The standard Teledyne cell recommended for use with the VR3 and a rebreather linking cable is the R22 with a 3.5 mini jack connection system.

FAQ #2 How do I test the oxygen sensor cell output?

Use a DC voltmeter. Test the voltmeter on a known voltage first such as a AA battery. Now test the cell. To test a cell with the molex (rebreather) style connection you touch the voltmeter probes to the two outside pins. To test an analyser cell you fit it to the cable and touch the voltmeter to the two pins on the VR3 end of the cable, taking care not to short the probes to the cable end casing.

FAQ#1: How do I connect my VR3 to my Inspiration?

Connection of the VR3 to your Inspiration is via the fourth cell holder linking cable and the Y-shaped Inspiration O2 interface. The screw fitting with the O-rings on the Y-shaped Interface goes onto the top of the stack where the rebreather inhalation hose is currently connected, so remove the inhalation hose from the stack and attach the Y-shaped Interface.

What is an oxygen sensor made of?

O2 Sensors - FAQ's
oxygen sensor is a solid electrolyte galvanic cell. Electrolyte is zirconium oxide, which is the same material synthetic diamonds are made from. This material is stabilized with a rare element called Yttria. The cell (thimble or flat plate) is then coated with pure platinum, which acts as a conductor/electrode (like battery plates).

FAQ#3 The switch in my VR3 is sticking. Is there anything I can do?

In rare cases the last two coils of the switch spring are a little too tight and cling on to the body of the switch causing the switch to stick. <br /> Hold the switch in and, with a small flat head screwdriver, carefully ease out the silver circlips holding it in from the small groove on the back of the VR3. The spring and switch will then come out easily.

FAQ #1 Which batteries should I use?

Use AA batteries with 1.5 to 3.6V. Do not use AA batteries below 1.2V. Lithium batteries last much longer but have a very fast discharge curve.

Why Replace The Oxygen Sensor?

Fuel Saver 5000?
If the oxygen sensor is not working properly you will experience worse gas mileage with the Fuel Saver 5000?, because the computer will not adjust the injectors to compensate for the extra vapor gas being fed to the engine. Original equipment works the best.

What is an ODS (oxygen depletion sensor)?

Stoves Depot | Your Online Source for Lennox Stoves
ODS is a sophisticated standing pilot system, standard on all vent-free logs. The ODS will shut off the log set if the oxygen level in the room falls below 18%. Normal oxygen levels in a room are around 21%. Oxygen depletion sensors have been used for over 40 years with a 100% safety record therefore making them a very safe and reliable system.

How does the oxygen sensor work?

O2 Sensors - FAQ's
The sensor works as a result of the varying quantities of oxygen in the exhaust verses the amount in the atmosphere. Voltage is produced by the difference in the two amounts. If the amount of oxygen in the exhaust is closer to the amount in the air, the engine is lean and the voltage is low (under 250mv). If the engine is rich the voltage is high (about 950mv).

The oxygen sensor sends a signal to the engine computer based on the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas. This signal is used by the engine ECU to fine-tune the mixture to the optimum level for maximum catalyst efficiency and longevity. A worn-out oxygen sensor can cause excessive gasoline consumption, elevated exhaust emissions, accelerated catalytic converter damage failures and cause engine performance problems such as surging and hesitating.

How do I know if my oxygen sensor may be damaged?

BMW,Mercedes,VW\Audi and Volvo repair in Marin Co. - SWISS G...
Unfortunately, the symptoms of a slow or even a dead sensor are not always obvious to the vehicle owner unless the vehicle fails an emissions test, a decline in fuel economy is noticed, or if driveability problems occur. Over time, exhaust contaminants accumulate on the sensing element reducing the sensor's ability to respond quickly to changes in air/fuel mixture and slowly the sensor becomes inoperable. Some symptoms of failed oxygen sensors are:

What will damage my oxygen sensor?

oxygen sensor can fail prematurely if it becomes contaminated with phosphorus from excessive oil consumption, silicone from internal coolant leaks, using silicone sealant in the engine, and some over-the-counter fuel additives. Even a small amount of poorly refined gasoline can kill an oxygen sensor. Environmental factors such as road splash, salt, oil, and dirt can also cause a sensor to fail, as can thermal shock, mechanical stress, or mishandling.

What is a universal heated oxygen sensor?

Bosch has created an aftermarket universal heated oxygen sensor program. These sensors meet OEM operating requirements and have a patented connector system easing installation. This connector system has been proven to be watertight, protect against contamination, and withstand the effects of extreme temperatures and engine vibration. Currently Bosch offers 12 different 4 wire sensors and 2 different 3 wire sensors to provide the closest match to OEM sensor performance.

Why should I change a damaged Oxygen Sensor?

According to a study conducted by Sierra Research Inc. in 1996, worn-out oxygen sensors are the “single greatest source of excessive emissions for fuel-injected vehicles” and the second most significant cause of high emissions in carburetor engines. The U.S.

FAQ #6 How do I calibrate the VR3 for my rebreather at altitude?

Because your rebreather works on absolute pressure, the calibration gas in the VR3 must be adjusted for the ambient pressure when diving at altitude. Therefore instead of setting the calibration gas as NX 99 ( as you would at sea level) you would set it as IMPORTANT NOTE; Remember, AFTER calibrating, to set the diluent setting back to the actual dive diluent!)

Q#1.7: Where can I get the files/archives recommended in this FAQ?

news.answers/apple2/GNO-faq
A#1.7: The "core" files of the GNO distribution (such as the GNO kernel and gsh(1)) are available through anonymous ftp as described in Q#1.5. Non-commercial files, unless otherwise specified, should be available from major Apple ftp sites. There is often a GNO- specific directory, but compatible programs, patches, etc, may appear anywhere under the Apple II hierarchy. The GNO distribution also contains many files in this category; ensure you have newest versions by checking the ftp sites.

What is a wideband oxygen sensor and why do I need one?

Stinger Performance 2.3T FAQ
Air/Fuel Ratio Primer: When air and gasoline are mixed together and ignited, the chemical reaction requires a certain amount of air to completely burn all of the fuel. The exact amount is 14.7 lbs of air for every pound of fuel. This is called the "stoichiometric" air/fuel ratio or 14.7:1 a/f. It's also referred to the Greek letter "lambda." Lean mixtures improve fuel economy but also cause a sharp rise in oxides of nitrogen (NOX).

How do I reset the oxygen sensor light?

The oxygen sensor light is attached to a small odometer which trips a switch every 30/60k miles. To turn the oxy light off, you have to reset that odometer. VW has two locations for this unit: Either somewhere along the speedometer cable, or as part of the instrument cluster. Jettas & Golfs: Remove the coolant reservoir to locate the box with the white recessed switch. Push it in far until you hear a satisfying click. You should only need to push once.
