  • Page 8: About The Gas Analyzers

    SS1000 TDLAS Analyzer BA02186C About the Gas Analyzers The SS1000 includes tunable diode laser (TDL) operating in the near- to short- wavelength infrared. Each compact sensor consists of a TDL light source, sample cell and detector specifically configured to enable high sensitivity measurement of a particular component within the presences of other gas phase constituents in the stream.

  • Page 11: Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy (Wms) Signal Detection

    Normalized absorption signal Wavelength (a.u.) Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy (WMS) signal detection Endress+Hauser takes the fundamental absorption spectroscopy concept a step further by using a sophisticated signal detection technique called wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS). When employing WMS, the laser drive current is modulated with a kHz sine wave as the laser is rapidly tuned.

    700-3000 nm, which provides the least amount of sensitivity to background stream variations. Getting to Know the Analyzer The SS1000 analyzer is used to verify H O measurements and for spot- checking when other methods provide questionable results. The analyzer is contained in a single light-weight portable enclosure for ease of handling.
