The development of a catalytic converter required an analysis of selected physical parameters of the supports. This resulted from the necessity to assume given parameters of the supports applied in the tests in exhaust gas environment in the CI engines. An analysis of ionic conductors, which constitutes the basic solution in voltage sensors providing signals through NOx electrocatalysis, is presented. The aim of this paper is to determine the basis for the monitoring of catalytic converters in compression ignition engines by the emission level of a selected exhaust gas component as a diagnostic signal. The emission of NOx has been taken as the basis. This required the development of a specialized system allowing the reduction of NOx and obtaining of a diagnostic signal reflecting the level of the said reduction. This paper includes same results of testing and possibilities monitoring of prototype catalytic converter on the test bed. On the basis of the performed examinations and obtained test results the following conclusions can be drawn: the analysis of the NOx concentrations in exhaust gas from the compression-ignition engine can be based on the indications of the voltage probes with the modified electrodes of the oxygen pump, the application of the reduction conditions in the voltage probes using the nitrogen oxides reduction by the electro-catalytic way depends on the exhaust gas parameters, the values of which change depending on the rotational crankshaft speed and engine load, and for this reason obtaining the diagnostic signal for the whole engine operation range is impossible, the control of the correctness of the catalyst operation regarding the nitrogen oxides reduction can be realised for the defined operating parameters of the tested engine, for phases VIII and X of the ESC test the reheating the test probe installed before the catalyst was unnecessary, owing to the high exhaust gas temperature (737-759°C).
