Analyzer measures CO2 at extreme pressures.December 26, 2008 -
Gas analyzer can measure CO2, used to dilute explosive amounts of ethylene oxide, under pressure during intermolecular energy transfer. Able to ignore transient extremes, instrument gives precise CO2 measurements throughout cycle and can link up various peripherals to create permanent record of changing values. Use of twin source-to-sensor pulsating IR beams eliminates mirrors/lenses/splitters as well as problems with dust, dirt, condensation, contamination, and misalignment.

New Analyzer Measures CO2 at High Pressures
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 11 -- A new sophisticated gas analyzer that measures carbon dioxide (CO2) under pressure extremes has been developed by Sensor Electronics of Minneapolis.
CO2 dilutes explosive concentrations of ethylene oxide (EtO) in, for example, medical equipment sterilizers and research laboratories. (EtO is both toxic and extremely flammable.)
Because of intermolecular energy transfer between EtO and CO2 (and nitrogen, oxygen, H20) under pressure, accurate CO2 measurement is virtually impossible.
Unlike erratic readings with conventional CO2 detectors, this new analyzer ignores the transient extremes to give precise CO2 measurements through the cycle.
The analyzer uses twin source-to-sensor pulsating infrared beams, thus eliminating mirrors/lenses/splitters, and problems with dust, dirt, condensation, contamination and misalignment.
It also shrugs off temperature and humidity extremes. Self-correcting circuitry means the analyzer can work for years without fussy adjustment or recalibration.
The analyzer even keeps a watchful eye on itself, flashing immediate warning of any internal problems, then spelling out what's wrong where.
The unit can link up with printers, plotters, loggers, and computers to make a permanent record of fast-changing CO2 values.
