Oracle - Non-Contacting Gas Detector Brochure

The Oracle is a non-contacting gas identifier  with part-per-million sensitivity that requires no consumables and which is operable over a wide temperature range.  It is essentially a long baseline infrared spectrometer that identifies gases by comparing their infrared (IR) signatures with a built-in library of target gas signatures.   A beam of infrared light from a remote source ( it may be located up to 50 meters away) is  intercepted and spectrally analyzed by a base station spectrometer.  The  unique vibrational spectra associated with the target gases or atmospheric reaction products  enable high reliability identification. Figure 1 shows the Oracle installed in an ASAP V.  However, the Oracle may also be used as a stand-alone system.
