    Technical notes Sensor lifetime The lifetime of the sensor may be shortened by the following undesirable influences: The sensors are deleteriously affected by gaseous components of silicones, oils and phosphate esters, which irreversibly re- duce their sensitivity. Pollution of the measuring environment by halogens, burnt neo- prene, PVC, trichloroethylene and the like also weakens the sensitivity of the sensors, but in this case it can be regenerated.
