The premium dual-channel pyrodetector meets the most demanding measurement applications for the analysis of N2O (nitrous oxide) in environments from -20 to 85 °C. It achieves an especially high detectivity of up to 4.0*10^8 cm√Hz/W and sensitivity of up to 200000 V/W. The optical filter with a CWL of 4525 ± 20 nm and a HBW of 83 ± 6 nm as well as an additional reference channel (CWL: 3910 ± 28, HBW: 70 ± 10 nm) match the characteristics of the gas exactly. NDIR gas analysis in aerospace, industrial process and exhaust gas measurement or anesthetic gas monitoring in medical are typical application fields for the MPS2SENS nitrous oxide.
The pyroelectric detector shows less sensitivity to external influences through internal signal amplification. Likewise, temperature fluctuations have only a minor influence due to the low thermal mass of the membrane. The special Micro-Hybrid product design allows a higher read-out rate up to 100 Hz and short response times of the dual detector.
