Carbon buildup, oil smoke, oxidation scale, and corrosive mediums can contaminate platinum electrodes or clog the protective tube zirconium tubes. Regular carbon burning, cleaning, or probe replacement is required, creating maintenance needs. These are further limited by gas diffusion speed (pore rate of the protective tube), electrode reaction rate, and temperature control stability. Although the Carbon King oxygen probe responds quickly, there is still some latency.
