How it works
The Teledyne API SO₂ UV Fluorescence Analyser (Model N100) is an accurate analyser that uses the proven UV-fluorescence principle to provide accurate and dependable measurements of low-level Sulphur Dioxide (SO₂) gas.
The instrument’s UV light source is continuously flashed to provide exceptional stability and long lifetime. Any potential lamp intensity fluctuations or detector drift is automatically managed in real-time using a sophisticated combination of reference readings during the lamp light/dark cycles. Hydrocarbon gases that fluoresce at the same wavelength as SO₂ gas are removed from the sample stream through a scrubber (i.e. kicker) and prior to detection to eliminate any potential interference. The long-life sample filter option further improves efficiency with a 6 month exchange interval in ambient air quality monitoring applications.
Instrument functions and controls are managed through a series of integrated microprocessor-controlled modules utilising a simple and reliable CAN Bus communications architecture. Each module is independently assembled and calibrated allowing easy and fast field replacement to maximise instrument uptime.
Intuitive operation and calibration of all N Series products is achieved through the NumaView™ Software interface.
