Applications

The principle of chemiluminescence detection is an extremely selective method for measuring nitrogen oxides precisely, with high linearity over a wide concentration range and with very high reproducibility. These qualities are the basis for the acknowledged high performance of ECO PHYSICS CLD NOx analyzers in tracing nitrogen oxides even down to the low ppt level.

Within each series, the second digit in the model name defines the measurement range of your first channel. If you estimate your highest concentration to be below 5000 ppm, you will have the choice of full range of any figure between 5 and 5000 ppm, e.g. 33 ppm or 850 ppm. Please consider, instruments configured with smaller measurement ranges of course possess a higher resolution.

Focuses on low NO_X and NO_X-related concentrations up to 100 ppm where high resolution is required. Parameters included are NO, NO₂, NO_X, NH₃, NO_X-Amines and NO_Y. Target applications are ambient air monitoring, indoor measurement, clean room measurement and atmospheric research.

Focuses on medium NOx, NOx-related and multigas-concentrations up to 5’000 ppm where flexibility is a central requirement. Parameters included are NO, NO₂, NOx, NH₃, NOx-amines, O₂ and CO₂. Typical supported applications are industrial emission monitoring and gas manufacturing control.

Focuses on high NOx, NOx-related and multigas-concentrations up to 10’000 ppm. Parameters included are NO, NO₂, NOx, NH₃, NOx-amines, O₂ and CO₂. The applications are characterized by demanding sample gas conditions, such as in automotive, aviation, naval, or combustive engine emissions, as well as in catalyst production.

NOx detection is an innovative approach in CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) process control. CMP smoothens the wafer surface with a combined chemical and mechanical polishing procedure. During production, wafers are coated by a thin layer. To avoid damage to the wafer surface, for instance by stress cracks, the NOx emitted as soon as the wafer is plane and blank must be measured. Therefore, a high-resolution NOx-detector, capable of determining exactly when the polishing process must be stopped, is essential. This approach is used successfully in manufacturing and development lines worldwide, since 1996.

Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FeNO) measurements are easy to perform and may be used to monitor eosinophilic airway inflammation (Asthma). A range of computerized pulmonary diagnostic products ranging from neonatology to adult pulmonary function testing are manufactured by ECO PHYSICS AG. These products are marketed and distributed by the label ECO MEDICS.
