General Description

Overview
LDS 6 is a diode laser gas analyzer with a measuring principle based on the specific light
absorption of different gas components. LDS 6 is suitable for fast and non-contact
measurement of gas concentrations or temperatures in process or flue gases. One or two
signals from up to three measuring points are processed simultaneously by one central
analyzer unit. The in-situ cross-duct sensors at each measuring point can be separated up to
700 m from the central unit by using fiber-optic cables. The sensors are designed for
operation under harsh environmental conditions and contain a minimum of electrical
components.
