ARCoptix OEM FTIR Spectrometer Gas Analysis Module
The ARCoptix FTIR spectrometer GASEX OEM module represents a highly efficient, rugged and fully integrated solution for gas spectroscopy in our product portfolio. Our OEM010 module is coupled to a low volume (0.2L) heated (up to 200°C) gas cell, in which light experiences multiple reflections, resulting in an integrated optical path of 5m with more than 50% transmission. The cell's internal optics is rhodium and gold coated, making it extremely resistant against most chemicals including acid gases such as HF, HCl, HBr, and many other gases like CO,CO2, NO, NO2, NH3, SO2,NOx, CH4, VOC's,...
The GASEX OEM has been standardized to operate with a resolution of 0.5cm-1, which makes it compliant with the newest legal regulations for emission measurements. Featuring a USB 2.0 connection, the unit can also host an embedded single-board computer for standalone operation. Typical limit of detection (LoD) are below 1 ppm for most of the gases – with 20s integration time.
