So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Significance Of Oxygen Sensor Recycling

By Deanne Shepard


An oxygen sensor is a type of an electronic device. Its main function is to measure oxygen gas, both in a liquid or gas state. This is in a case where the gas is to be analyzed. The gadget was introduced into the market way back in the nineteen sixties under the supervision of Gunter Bauman. At times, the device can stop working properly and can be made useful again through oxygen sensor recycling.

The device faces high chances of contamination because of where it is located. Its location is in the exhaust of motor cars. The contamination mainly results from fuels and also gases that pass along this location. Examples of such gases include carbon dioxide gas together with hydrogen gas among other wastes. Contamination from toxins will dysfunction the device. Soot can build up, along ceramic point, and as a result the gadget will not be in a position to detect oxygen as required.

Sometimes, a person can refill a car with poor quality gasoline which is known to contain lead. Lead has been found to reduce the life span of an oxygen sensor. The gadget also faces a greater risk from silicon and silicate which are major causes of its malfunctioning. These contaminates destroys the combustion engine which in turn reduces the mileage of a vehicle.

A sensor is supposed to be maintained in its shape and also state for a constant usage of gas. Sometimes the device can be damaged beyond repair which leaves an individual with no choice other than to get a new one. It is however expensive, a factor that makes it economical to recycle. One way of doing this is cleaning it and re-installing it. This is when one finds out that it does not function well.

We can repair old items by cleaning them. Sometimes we can remove dirt and be surprised to see it functioning just like it was new. This is after discovering residue forming on the device which obviously making it not to function well. By cleaning however, we are not guaranteed that it will function again.

You are to clean an exhaust using propane if you intend to remove the entire residue. The practice is aimed at removing residue. The exhaust gets overheated which forms the vulnerability of being contaminated. As time passes, carbon will form a coating which refuses to dissolve in solvents with ease.

We should use the blow torch in heating the tip of this device until a point where it turns red. Just immediately after turning red, we should dip it in water. We clean the gadget by blowing compacted air into the tip of our device.

In conclusion, we should remove oil contaminants and fuel. We can use a CRC brand QD electronic cleaner to do this. This is an effective method, removing the entire residue upon drying. We ought to be careful to avoid contact of the nozzle of a cleaner with the gadget while spraying. Through the above procedures, we ought to maintain the gadget ensuring its life span is maximized hence saving on the cost.
