Ahh, OK. I googled 'partial pressure' because I didn't recognise the term. If you're testing for a specific gas or set of gases then the concentrations can be predicted from the differential pressures though? If that's the case then the catalyst/fuel cell method would still work wouldn't it? (Not being obtuse, just trying to work something through for my own curiosity now) -- Clint Sharp
