Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing an electrochemical sensor module, the method comprising: molding first and second opposing portions of a plurality of sensor module housings onto a carrier, each of the first portions extending from a first end to a second end, the first portion of each sensor module housing including a depression that at least partially forms an analysis cell when the first portion is aligned with the respective second portion, and the first portion of each sensor module housing defining an electrode channel extending from the first end to the second end, the carrier holding the first portions so that the electrode channels align along a length of the carrier, and the carrier holding the second portions laterally offset from the respective first portions; installing an electrode arrangement on the first portion of each sensor module housing at an installation station including aligning at least one continuous electrode along the electrode channels of the sensor module housings, wherein the electrode arrangement is arranged in communication with the analysis cell when the first portion of each sensor module housing is aligned with the second portion; folding the carrier to align the first portion of each sensor module housing with the second portion at a folding station; and joining the first and second portions of each sensor module housing at a joining station.
