Yes this works, but as with an O2 analyzer, you have to make sure you calibrate to air before analyzing any mix. When they're brand new, the sensors I use put out about 12.1 - 12.6 mV when exposed to 21% O2 at 1 ATA. After about 6 months to a year of heavy use, they drop to about 8-9 mV. This needs to be taken into account when you analyze your gas.
