Description Within the sensors chambers up to four gas sensors with different electrodes configurations can be simultaneously exposed to the gas atmosphere. Subsequent Teflon sockets and stainless steel electrical contacts are used for DC measurements and sensor’s temperature control. The two parts of the chamber, the main body and the cover are sealed using Viton […]

Precise gas flow control is crucial for acquiring accurately gas concentrations. Therefore mass flow controllers must be periodically calibrated using Alltech DFC. Calibrated Testo 625 thermo hygrometer is used to check the relative humidity accuracy through the flow system.
