O₂ is one of the most critical variables in the physical world — shaping freshness, safety, efficiency, and stability across global systems. When you can measure oxygen with precision, you unlock control over processes that move billions of products and impact millions of lives.
O₂ drives freshness, shelf life, and quality across the entire food and beverage supply chain.
O₂ data protects patients and improves outcomes across respiratory care, wound care, and diagnostics.
O₂ determines stability, yield, and safety in combustion, fermentation, and chemical production processes.
Precise O₂ control enables reliable performance in fuel cells, electrolysers, and next-generation energy systems.
Compact O₂ sensing powers new applications in personal health, safety, and continuous monitoring.
Any system influenced by oxygen becomes a platform for innovation when accurate, scalable O₂ sensing is available.

What is the measurement principle?
Electrochemical gas detection on a chip with no liquids. This is achieved using MECS-Technology®.
What type of miniaturization is possible?
From MEMS-like components, to flexible labels/tags, MECS-Technology® is ideal for gas sensor miniaturization to nearly any form factor.
Where is oxygen detection most important?
Measuring oxygen is critical in food packaging, medical devices, logistics, safety, semiconductor, automotive, and many more applications. Faradaic is leading this transition to mass-scale monitoring of oxygen for the first time.
What are the operating ranges and power draw?
Our sensors measure oxygen in the %-range, relevant for food packaging applications, respiratory, and more. The sensor consumes mere microwatts of power; ideal for passive NFC applications and battery-powered devices.
