Sensit IRED Infrared Ethane Detector

Sensit iRed Infrared Ethane Detector

Sensit IRED is a state-of-the-art ethane detector incorporating a unique, patented use of infrared absorption spectroscopy to determine the presence of ethane in a methane sample. This technology can detect as little as 250ppb ethane in a 50ppm methane sample.

 

Even the smallest of samples can be analyzed in the field to determine if gas from a natural gas piping system is being detected.

    Features and Benefits:

  • Ethane Specific – IRED filters out other gases.
  • Ideal for low concentration methane readings.
  • Displays 0-999 ppb ethane
  • Displays 1.0-500 ppm ethane
  • GPS capable for measurement mapping (optional feature)

 

Ethane is the key “fingerprint” contained in pipeline gas and typically ranges from 2-25% by volume. The SENSIT IRED is a field tool that produces accurate results within minutes rather than hours or days if other methods are used.
