REMOTE GAS ANALYZER
BeamSight™
Detect and analyze gases remotely in fixed installations or battery-powered portable applications. Watch our product demo here.
The BM-V-2 BeamSight is a cutting-edge tool for remote gas analysis, offering true stand-off detection capable of analyzing gas concentrations from a significant distance.
Effortless commissioning: The true remote-analysis configuration provides alignment-free commissioning, eliminating the need for long cables or complex mechanical and opto-mechanical constructions. This innovative approach allows monitoring of large areas with a single system and provides measurement results at a safe distance from potentially hazardous gases.
Advanced TDLAS technology: Based on the Beamonics proprietary remote TDLAS platform, the BM-V-2 BeamSight is inherently calibration- and maintenance-free. The analyzer does not suffer from sensor-poisoning effects and can continuously measure gas concentrations from very low background atmospheric levels to saturation levels (100 vol%).
Exceptional sensitivity: The BM-V-2 BeamSight boasts outstanding sensitivity, capable of analyzing even background atmospheric concentrations of several gases, such as methane (CH₄) and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Versatile configurations: The BM-V-2 BeamSight is available in two configurations: one for fixed installations and one for battery-powered portable applications. These configurations make it ideal for portable applications, including rover or drone-mounted setups, and fixed installations.
Integration ready: The BM-V-2 BeamSight is delivered in an integration-ready state with several interfaces, including USB, UART, and I²C.
Target gases: The analyzer can analyze a range of gases, including CH₄, CO₂, CO, HF, H₂S and NH₃.
