IR-208 Gas Analyzer

Principles of Operation

The IR-208 Gas Analyzer integrates two different types of gas measurement into one instrument. A multiple channel infrared detector array utilizing a single beam infrared optical system detects target gases using specially designed narrow band-pass optical filters. Comparing the infrared absorption of the reactive detectors to the nonreactive detector in the array provide the comparative for measuring the gas concentration in the sample stream. With a choice of gases, up to 3 gases can be measured under infrared and up to 3 additional gases can be measured utilizing electrochemical cell, paramagnetic, or other sensors.

Features and Benefits

Infrared Industries Manufactured Components

The use of Infrared Industries manufactured optical elements, detectors, and filters guarantee low cost and consistent high quality.

Continuous Monitoring

The IR-208 features a long life, solid-state infrared detector designed for high performance and uninterrupted operation.

Manufacturing Volume and Experience

The experience that Infrared Industries has in manufacturing a large volume of analyzers results in high quality instrumentation at competitive prices.

High Accuracy

The IR-208 analyzer is calibrated to 1% of full scale without drift in calibration for 30 days. Each instrument has a LCD display for easy and accurate readouts. The IR-208's dependability, accuracy, and stability increase process control capability resulting in improved product quality and reduced process cost.

PC Connectivity

InfraView Software is provided to connect the IR-208 to a PC via RS232 output.

Easy Readability

The IR-208 features a large, easy-to-read 6.5” graphic LCD display.

Long-Term Stability

With multi-layered compensation and a high-quality electrochemical sensors, the IR-208 is designed for unsurpassed stability, accuracy, and durability.

Quality Composition

Superior materials including stainless steel sample cells and anti-reflective coatings on sapphire windows and selected o-rings mark the analyzer's construction.

Solid Performance

A rugged, long life solid-state detector assures durability.
