Gas detector spots tiny amounts of
ammonia
The microLGD gas sensors are offered as stand-alone systems or OEM sub-mounts for the continuous monitoring of NH3 and other gases like O2, CO2, CH4, H2O.
IR Microsystems has released a sub-parts per million ammonia gas detector The drift-free detector shows an excellent RMS noise of only 0.15 parts per million, with perfect linearity up to 1000 parts per million

Optical sensors are easy to set up, easy to use
The new B45 series of intelligent optical sensors from ABB Control is designed to offer maximum versatility and ease of use for a wide variety of control applications.
The sensors are targeted toward applications in industrial safety, refrigeration, emission control, farming and agriculture.
The microLGD gas sensors are offered as stand-alone systems or OEM sub-mounts for the continuous monitoring of NH3 and other gases like O2, CO2, CH4, H2O.
The products offer extremely high selectivity, calibration-free operation, a low cost of ownership and safety.
The measurement principle is based on tunable diode laser spectrometry (TDLS) and results in products without a reference channel, allowing for simpler, lower-cost systems.
The sensor comprises a microprocessor-driven read-out module with digital and analogue data outputs for industry-standard connectivity (I2C-bus, RS485, RS232, or 4-20mA).
The unit is built ready-to-use for rapid OEM integration into stand-alone units, detector networks or explosion-proof housings.
