MiniPID 2 PID PPB - Photoionisation Detection (PID) Sensors
Designed for OEMs, we manufacture and supply more photoionisation detection (PID) sensors than any other company in the world with our sensor technology trusted by major gas detection manufacturers, globally. Our patented Fence Electrode Technology is proven to resist humidity and contamination, giving you outstanding results when detecting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) within the most challenging environments. The PPB sensor is optimised to deliver an exceptionally low background which allows for optimum low-end sensitivity whilst maintaining a wide dynamic range. >40 ppm range, 1 ppb MDL, 10.6 eV.
MiniPID 2 is a simple plug-and-play sensor able to deliver a dynamic and dependable response to thousands of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) across many diverse applications.
The sensor is designed for both diffusive and in-line pumped sampling, delivering an exceptional response time and clear down. MiniPID 2 incorporates lamps of exceptional brightness and stability enabling detection of less volatile and less readily sensed compounds reliably, over an extended period of time.
The PPB sensor is optimised to deliver an exceptionally low background which allows for optimum low-end sensitivity whilst maintaining a wide dynamic range.
