INFRA.sensModel AK50 -NDIR Gas Measurement Module

SHARE

The INFRA.sens was specially developed for high-quality NDIR gas analysis. In the design phase, special emphasis was placed on high stability and a low detection limit. With the use of high-performance thermal micro radiators, which were adapted to the needs of gas measurement technology, these goals were achieved in full. In the spectral range from 2 μm to 12 μm, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrous oxide can be reliably detected up to the ppm range with this new sensor platform.
