WS-CRDS Analyzer for CO2/CH4/H2O in air - Model G1301

  • Simultaneous, precise measurement of CO2, CH4 and H2O
  • PPB sensitivity, precision & accuracy with virtually no drift
  • Fast, continuous, real time measurements without interference
  • Large dynamic range with high linearity
  • Field and laboratory deployable with no consumables
  • Installed and operational in minutes
  • Rugged and insensitive to changes in ambient temperature

Complete understanding of global warming, modeling, protocols and international agreements, as well as local, national and global verification, can all require the need to measure the three principal greenhouse gases, CO2, CH4 and H2O. The Picarro G1301 is the only instrument that can make all these measurements and also act as a direct reference/standards transfer. Specifically, its compact portability means the G1301 operates equally well in the reference laboratory, as a portable spot measurement tool, or remotely as an unattended continuous monitoring station. It combines parts per billion sensitivity with the dynamic range necessary to measure undiluted ambient atmospheric levels of these species. And because it is a fully self-contained, rugged instrument with no moving parts, the G1301 can operate for up to months in the field without the use of calibration gases.

Because the G1301 analyzer is based on WS-CRDS technology there is no crosstalk between the CO2, CH4 and H2O detection channels and all three channels are unaffected by changes in other gas species. Also, data are immune to changes in ambient temperature and pressure.
