Lumasense Technologies has announced the first in a range of gas analysis instruments for use in a wide variety of industrial applications, the Innova 1316 multi-gas monitor.
The Innova 1316 is capable of measuring a customer-specified set of up to five gases.
The instrument is based on a rugged, reliable and field-proven product platform.
It provides an accurate multi-gas solution that can be used in applications such as fermentation monitoring, refrigerant leak detection, landfill and/or greenhouse gas monitoring, biogas monitoring, stack gas monitoring (CEMS), inert gas blanketing in the food industry, monitoring of hospital gases for occupational hygiene, and industrial process- and production-control.
The Innova 1316 incorporates our Andros brand of NDIR (non-dispersive infrared) gas bench, which has no moving parts in the optical path.
The instrument measures up to five gases, including oxygen, and is configured from an assortment of available gas detection modules and sensors.
'The Innova 1316 is an excellent complement to the ultra-low detection ranges of our existing line of photo-acoustic gas analysers - the Innova 1412 and Innova 1314,' said Jesper Krogdahl, managing director for Lumasense Technologies.
The Innova 1316 instrument has software that communicates via RS-232 or USB interfaces.
Measured data can be shown on a PC as numeric values or graphically for ease of interpretation.
Large datasets can be analysed by our software or exported to other analytical software tools.
The software can accept up to four Innova 1316 instruments each representing a separate sample point.
The software is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003.
Lumasense Technologies designs and manufactures the Innova brand of end-user instruments and the Andros brand of OEM gas benches.
The NDIR technology platform allows multiple gases to be measured with a single optical assembly that can be configured for various tasks including combustion monitoring, methane capture, fermentation and refrigerant leak detection.
