Flow sensors for gases - Import export

The NDIR bundle medical gases is a test set of perfectly matched components for gas analysis in the medical environment. The bundle offers a selection of IR emitters and detectors for the measurement of common gases such as CO2, CO, N2O, hydrocarbons, halothane, x fluranes or alcoholic compounds: three IR emitters of the JSIR 350 series in different housings and seven matched thermopile IR detectors with two or four channels of the MTS 200 series. Developers thereby achieve rapid results in the project phase: short-term availability of infrared components in small quantities; evaluation and testing of products and various components in one measuring system. Fast test results in the development of medical technology systems and devices help to achieve a significant competitive edge until the series product is ready for the market. Micro-Hybrid is the only manufacturer worldwide to supply both infrared components for gas analysis in one set.

The robust BCP-CH4 methane sensor is based on infrared gas measurement techique and is available in 2 different wavelengths. Minimum flow is not needed and it can be integrated directly into the gas pipe. A gas cooling is no longer required. Monthly adjustment can be done with fresh air. The sensor is longterm stable and IP65 accredited. The production of methane in biogas plants (methane digester) can be monitored by the BCP-CH4 sensor which helps to optimize the process control. By using BCP-CH4 in block heat and power plants the actual efficiency can be determined.

The function of the flow sensor is based on the calorimetric principle. The probe is heated up from the inside a few degrees Celsius in relation to the flow medium, in which it protrudes. When the medium flows, the heat generated in the probe is dissipated through the medium. The temperature within the sensor is measured and compared with the likewise measured medium temperature. From the obtained temperature difference the flow state of each medium can be derived. These sensors are applied in areas such as monitoring of cooling systems, ventilation systems, pump dry running by checking the presence of liquid or gas flows.
