NOx sensor protection system
A NOx sensor protection system (130) includes a flow control device (131) forming an internal chamber (134) with exhaust and shield gas ports (141, 150) and a NOx sensor (118, 120). The flow control device (131) is configured to selectively allow a flow of exhaust from an exhaust pipe (112) to the N...

Summary: | A NOx sensor protection system (130) includes a flow control device (131) forming an internal chamber (134) with exhaust and shield gas ports (141, 150) and a NOx sensor (118, 120). The flow control device (131) is configured to selectively allow a flow of exhaust from an exhaust pipe (112) to the NOx sensor (118, 120) when an internal combustion engine (102) is operated with a first fuel, and to selectively direct shield gas from the shield gas port (150) at an angle of 135° to 180° to the NOx sensor (118, 120) to inhibit the flow of exhaust from the exhaust pipe (112) to the NOx sensor (118, 120) when the engine (102) is operated with a second fuel. |
