General Information on N₂O – Nitrous oxide
Nitrous oxide (N₂O), commonly known by the trivial name laughing gas, is a colorless gas from the group of nitrogen oxides. In literature, nitrous oxide is also referred to as nitrogen oxydul. Laughing gas is best known as an inhalation anesthetic. N₂O is also produced in small quantities during the combustion of fossil fuels.
Gas Sensors for the Detection of N₂O
- Innovative NDIR Sensor (non-dispersive infrared sensor)
- Max. 3 simultaneously detectable gases per sensor unit
- Measuring ranges from ppm to Vol.-%
RITTER »MultiGas« Combined Modules NDIR + NDUV
RITTER »MultiGas« Modules can also be a combination of both NDIR sensors and NDUV sensors on a common board. With this unit, up to 3 gas components can be measured simultaneously. The basic electronics can supply IR and UV radiation sources with different frequencies for 0 Hz (DC) to 100 Hz (AC). This system is an ideal tool for detecting multi-component gas at low ppm levels.
Please note: For technical and chemical reasons, not every combination of gases/measuring ranges can be analyzed/measured in a single or combined RITTER »MultiGas« module. As this is a rather complex topic, please do not hesitate to contact one of our gas experts first.
