    Measurements of CO can be affected by two other gases that can be found in landfill gas – hydrogen and hydrogen sulphide. To reduce the effect of hydrogen, the GEM5000 analyser uses a technique that is hydrogen compensated. Hydrogen compensation is achievable up to a level of around 2000ppm.
  • Page 54: Cross-Gas Effects On Methane, Carbon Dioxide And Oxygen

    GEM5000 gas analyser OMGEM5KN4 8.8.2 Cross-gas effects on methane, carbon dioxide and oxygen Methane is measured using dual beam infrared absorption. Analysers are calibrated using certified methane mixtures and will give correct readings provided there are no other hydrocarbon gases present within the sample (e.g. ethane, propane, butane, etc). If there are other hydrocarbons present, the methane reading will be elevated (never lower) than the actual methane concentration being monitored.
