General Description

TheSENSIT®InfraredEthaneDectector,referredtoas“IRED”,isdesignedtodetectthepresenceof

ethanegasinamethanegassample.TheIREDcandetect250partsperbillion(ppb)upto500ppm

ethane.TheIREDisusedtodetermineifmethanedetectedintherangeof50-2000ppmisofsimilar

make-uptothatofpipelinegas(whichcontainsethane)orisnaturallyoccurringmethanefromother

sourcessuchasorganicdecay.TheIREDisnotdesignedforhighconcentrationsordeterminingactual

ethanecontentfromwithinapipeline.

TheIREDsensesgasusingInfrared(IR)AbsorptionSpectroscopyincombinationwithanelectronic

narrowband-passlter.Thistechnologyutilizesaninfraredlightsourcewithanoutputthatischanged

when certain gases absorb the light output.  The lter only allows specic light wavelengths to be

monitoredandmeasured.TheconcentrationofgasisproportionaltotheamountofspecicIRlight

absorbedandisdisplayedinPPBorPPM.

TheIREDhasalargedisplay indicatingbothsustainedandpeakreading concentrationsandother

instrumentfunctions.Aninternalpumpprovidesrapidsamplingintothedetectionchamber.Bluetooth

data transmission provides communication of real time and stored data. Optional GPS with Data

Loggingallowforfurtherrecordingoftime,dateandlocationdata.
