Abstract
A gas sensor assembly is provided with a non-conductive housing portion and a plurality of conductive housing portions, each of which are conductively separated from each other, and the conductive housing portions are composed of a conductive plastic material. A gas-sensing agent is disposed in a receptacle formed in the housing, and a plurality of electrodes are disposed in conductive contact with the gas-sensing agent. The gas sensor has an electrode support sheet with a plurality of electrodes formed thereon, and a seal is formed between the electrode support sheet and the housing, the seal being formed by the sealing of a portion of one of the electrodes to a portion of the housing.
