Traditional oxygen activity measurement in glass melts is based on Y<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>-stabilized ZrO<sub>2</sub> which, in continuous use in the glassworks, is subjected to considerable wear. The present paper describes an oxygen sensor that is not equipped with wear parts. The new sensor is far less sensitive to temperature gradients in the surrounding area than ZrO<sub>2</sub> sensors; the oxygen measurement, however, is greatly disturbed at direct flame irradiation.
