fastLine Gas sensors

The fastLine gas sen­sors pro­duct line is spe­ci­fi­cal­ly desi­gned for ultra-fast gas mea­su­re­ments and mini­mum respon­se times. Up to 4 gases can be mea­su­red simul­ta­neous­ly in 2 opti­cal gas mea­su­ring cells.

Gassensor V3 CO CO2

The Gassensor V3 platform

The fastLine sen­sors are based on the Gas­sen­sor V3 Plat­form. They share a uni­que con­cept for mea­su­ring various gases and con­cen­tra­ti­ons with the shor­test pos­si­ble respon­se time.

By com­pen­sa­ting the gas mea­su­re­ment with various meteo­ro­lo­gi­cal para­me­ters, the Gas­sen­sor V3 plat­form blurs the boun­da­ry bet­ween a gas sen­sor and a gas analyser.

The gas measurement cells – for any gas and concentration

1 or 2 mea­su­re­ment cells with 2 mea­su­ring chan­nels each can be deploy­ed per gas ana­ly­ser. Each of the mea­su­re­ment cells are opti­mi­sed for the gas to be mea­su­red and the its gas concentration.

In con­se­quence, each mea­su­re­ment cell can be con­fi­gu­red as a sin­gle-beam or dual-beam sen­sor with refe­rence compensation.

More details about mea­su­re­ment cells and sin­gle-beam or dual-beam tech­ni­que can be found in the tech­no­lo­gy artic­le NDIR Tech­no­lo­gy fast­Li­ne sensors

Full pressure and temperature compensation

The plat­form V3 includes gas tem­pe­ra­tu­re and pres­su­re sen­sors. This enables the ana­ly­zer to com­pen­sa­te tem­pe­ra­tu­re and pres­su­re effects to gas con­cen­tra­ti­on measurements.

Minimal sampling flow required

The gas ana­ly­zers are desi­gned for side-stream appli­ca­ti­on, whe­re a sam­pling flow from the main stream is sampled.

Only a mini­mal flow of 0.5 slm is requi­red to meet the spe­ci­fied  respon­se time T90 of 150 msec.

Optional auxiliary sensors

Other non-infrared gas­sen­sors for gases such as O2, H2O, VOC or others may be inte­gra­ted optio­nal­ly within the gas analyzer.

Robust enclosure

The stan­dard alu­mi­ni­um enlo­sure pro­tects against EMI inter­fe­ren­ces and envi­ron­men­tal influences.

Industrial and OEM options for fittings and connectors

The­re are opti­ons bet­ween secu­red fit­tings and con­nec­tors for harsh envi­ron­ments or cost optim­zed OEM interfaces.
