A heated O2 sensor is generally suited for measurements in the lean range, and come into operation in the "warm-up" phase, before the stoichiometric ratio is reached.(the term refering to the ideal A/F ratio of 14.7:1)

In MOST of our Cobra applications, the use of heated sensors would not be of much benefit.

Hope this helps.
