Sunnyvale, CA - Picarro has appointed KNJ Engineering as a distributor of their instruments in South Korea. KNJ Engineering will sell and support Picarro gas and isotope analyzers for environmental applications, including greenhouse gas (CO2, CH4 and H2O) detection,
KNJ Engineering, Inc. was founded in 1992 and has grown to become a leading supplier of source gas sampling systems, continuous emission monitoring instruments, and ambient/indoor air quality sampling and monitoring systems in South Korea.
Chungkoo Kim, president of KNJ Engineering notes that, "We supply many air quality monitoring systems to the Korean government and to local provinces. Picarro's gas and isotope analyzers are the optimum solution for those who wish to evolve from our traditional air quality monitoring systems to include greenhouse gas monitoring too. For example, Picarro's CO2/CH4/H2O analyzer and isotopic CO2 analyzer are natural additions to our current portfolio of measurement solutions." Kim adds, "Picarro's instruments will also be easier for us to support than prior technology. Currently, our engineers visit various monitoring stations located around the country every week for calibration, but the drift-free nature of the Picarro systems will reduce this service load significantly."
"Our instruments based on WS-CRDS (Wavelength-Scanned Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy) technology offer an unmatched combination of performance and convenience for greenhouse gas monitoring applications," states Michael Woelk, Picarro CEO. "But, in order for them to succeed in a market, they must also be backed with superior support. KNJ Engineering is a market leader in South Korea that has consistently demonstrated the ability to deliver this level of support, and we're particularly excited about partnering with them."
Picarro, Inc. is a privately held company dedicated to developing instrumentation for the highest sensitivity, precision and accuracy measurements of specific molecules of interest in environmental analyses, process monitoring, and emissions control. The company is a leader in wavelength scanned cavity ring down spectroscopy (WS-CRDS) technology with eight exclusive licenses from Stanford University patents and nine of its own on WS-CRDS extensions.
