Nitrous Oxide
Signal make a range of analysers for nitrous oxideto comply with the latest EPA regulations and ISO21258 for automotive and other applications.
Nitrous Oxide, or laughing gas, is a relative newcomer to the list of industrial pollutants of concern to regulatory bodies monitoring climate change. It has a stronger greenhouse effect than carbon dioxide and is produced as a by-product of many industrial processes.
The measurement techniques available for this gas are infra-red and electrochemical cell. Both have their limitations. The US EPA have produced guidelines on what they consider to be the reference method for measuring N2O as part of the process of legislating for it to be measured and reported by engine and vehicle manufacturers and other industries. They suggest using an infra-red detector that uses a catalyst to oxidise CO, the strongest interferent.
S4 PULSAR
Non Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) Multi-gas analysers are available in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 gas channel configurations, offering high levels of performance and flexibility. Options include CO, CO2, CH4, NO, N2O, SO2, HCl and O2.

How to check the calibration and linearity of gas analysers
Calibration is the process of establishing the relationship between the output of a measurement and a known input. In common with most measuring instruments, gas
New demands for enhanced Greenhouse Gas monitoring
Increasing political action on Climate Change is prompting a new requirement for process operators to improve the accuracy and reliability of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
Monitoring solvent emissions to ensure compliance
Governments from around the world have implemented environmental regulations to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from industrial processes. For example, according to
