Nitric Oxide Sensors

Alphasense Nitric Oxide gas sensors operate using proven fuel cell technology.

Sensors are available in the following sizes:

A: 20mm diameter, the industry standard size for portable gas detectors

B: 32mm diameter package, the best choice for fixed site applications

D: miniature, with proven long-term performance. Sensors designed for the next generation of portable gas detectors

The NO range provides OEMs with reliable sensors for use in a number of high volume applications. Strong signal levels combined with low zero current allows resolution to 200 parts per billion (ppb) whilst giving linear outputs to as high as 250ppm. The sensors are suitable for inclusion in fixed installation sensing heads, portable safety instruments, urban air monitoring and stack gas analysers.

Alphasense NO sensors provide a significant improvement in stability of response to transient relative humidity changes.

The NO sensors offer our electrolyte leak-free guarantee and reliable long-term detection performance. The leakproof housing is moulded with a colour coded top for ease of identification.

Alphasense tests the performance of every sensor; results are stored on our database, giving full traceability for all sensors. The unique Automatic Test and Validation (ATAV) system controls initial sensor stabilisation and runs complex tests under computer control. This computerised system also ensures traceability as tested sensors are moved direct to despatch with their unique barcodes. The ATAV system also runs full validation testing, monitors sensors for long term performance and its generated statistics are used for statistical process control.
