What gases can be analysed?

Basically all gases that absorb light in the spectrum from 650 nm to 2 μm. Including, but not limited to: CH4, O2, CO2, CO, NOx, SOx, HF, HCn, H2S, NH3 and HCl.

Are your instruments sensitive to background light?

No, we use a narrow band optical filter to only analyse the light at a specific wavelength. So it essentially doesn’t matter if it’s dark, daylight, fluorescent light or any other kind of light in the space the instrument is installed.

Does your products have ATEX or similar certificates?

No, not at the moment, but we are prepared to initiate the process when there is a need.

How long is the lead time?

It depends on the configuration, if it’s one of our standard configurations for transmission measurement of O2, CO2, or CH4 we usually can ship within 2-4 weeks. For other configurations, it can be anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months, depending on the availability of components, mainly the laser.

Your products seem expensive?

Of course, it’s relative, our price might be higher compared to some other gas sensors on the market, but in general, we have higher accuracy, and can report real time data. And in the long run, we are competitive due to low maintenance cost and long life time.

TDLAS seems great, but I need multiple sensors for point measurements in several positions in my facility, do you have a solution for this that can be competitive?

Yes, we can provide a solution where gas is extracted from each position where you need to measure, and then the gas is analysed in a central unit.
