Model 2020 Chemiluminescent NOx Analyzer

The Model 2020 Chemiluminescent NOx analyzer measures from 10 ppm or lower up to 500 ppm of NO, NO2, and NOx with a resolution of 0.01 ppm. A dual-range version is also available offering 0–500 ppm and 0–3,000 ppm. The analyzer has been developed specifically to address the performance requirements of the low NOx market with respect to drift, noise, and elimination of interference from CO2 and water. All digital electronics provide high accuracy and less noise. The front-panel display of converter temperature and chamber pressure allows visual confirmation of operating parameters.

Sensor-e Series of Gas Analyzers

The Sensor-e series of gas analyzers use proven analytical techniques, coupled with state-of-the-art microprocessor technology to provide accurate and dependable gas measurements. The multitasking software gives realtime indication of a large number of operational parameters and provides automatic alarms if diagnostic limits are exceeded. All instruments of the Sensor-e series include an extensive built-in data acquisition capability using the analyzer’s internal memory.
