A gas analyzer is a machine that can analyze the concentration of multiple gases or specific components of gases, such as pollutants. Target gases include carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, oxygen, nitrogen oxides, and others.
Depending on the application, the types of gases that can be measured, the number of items, and the analysis methods employed will vary widely. In industry, gas analyzers are used in a wide range of applications, such as optimizing the operation of facilities and saving energy, monitoring air pollution, and in agriculture (storage and ripening of fruits and vegetables).
Because gas analyzers can measure multiple gases, they are used in a variety of situations. In process control, gas analyzers are used for quality management and control in production processes.
They are also used for safety management in various situations, such as monitoring for energy conservation in combustion equipment such as boilers, preventing leakage of toxic or flammable gases at work sites, and checking to prevent oxygen deficiency. They are also used for monitoring the atmosphere in accordance with the Basic Environment Law, targeting carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides.
There are several gases that can be measured by gas analyzers. Therefore, there are a wide variety of analysis methods. In this article, we will introduce the principles and methods of the main methods used for analysis. The numbers in parentheses refer to the category of a measurement method to which the method belongs.
This is a method in which a sample is irradiated with light having a specific wavelength and the amount of absorbed infrared radiation is detected by a mass flow sensor. Double-beam and single-beam types are available depending on the type of irradiation.
This method utilizes the fact that when a platinum wire is heated and brought into contact with a sample gas, the equilibrium temperature between the supplied and emitted heat amounts depends on the thermal conductivity of each gas.
The magnetic force and zirconia methods are used to measure oxygen.
When a magnetic field is applied to a sample, pressure is generated as oxygen is attracted to it. A mass flow sensor detects this pressure.
This analyzer uses the property of zirconia porcelain to conduct oxygen ions under high temperatures. This method detects the electromotive force generated at the electrodes of the zirconia element.
