Flexible gas analysis over the entire line
Measuring difcult, selective gas components such as ammonia (NH
3
), hydrogen uoride (HF),
and hydrogen chloride (HCI) is a major challenge for process analysis and emission monitoring.
The GM700 in-situ gas analyzer opens up new options here. With unparalleled exibility – without
the need for test gases.
The GM700 gas analyzer operates reliably and efciently.
Thanks to its innovative in-situ measuring technology, the
analyzer can be mounted at the measurement location directly
in the duct through which the gas ows. The benets: time and
cost savings thanks to simple installation and commissioning,
low maintenance requirements, and very short response times.
The GM700 delivers a high-resolution measurement using
direct laser spectroscopy (see below) with a precisely adjust-
ed spectral line. The result: fast and undistorted recording of
measuring gas concentrations without time-consuming gas
extraction, conditioning, and cost-intensive transportation. Gas
components that can be measured by the GM700 include: NH
3
,
HF, and HCI.
Technology and principle of operation
Laser spectroscopy
(tunable diode laser spectroscopy, TDLS)
In laser spectroscopy, the laser beam from the sender is
sent through the gas to be measured to the reector. From
there, it is reected back to a sensitive detector (photo
diode) in the sender/receiver unit. The wavelength of the la-
ser diode is adjusted to a spectral line of the measuring gas
component. This is scanned by modulating the wavelength
and recorded by the photo diode of the detector. A signal
evaluation then provides the gas concentration based on
the wavelength-specic absorption of the measurement
signal. The TDLS principle therefore allows gas components
in a gas mixture to be measured selectively.
