PICARRO GREENHOUSE GAS ANALYZERS

High precision concentration analyzers for the measurement of greenhouse gases in an atmospheric background at parts-per-billion (ppb) sensitivity with negligible drift.

Patented Picarro cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) technology enables an effective measurement path length of up to 20 kilometers in a compact cavity (temperature and pressure controlled), providing exceptional precision & sensitivity in a small-footprint analyzer. The system requires minimal or no sample preparation or dilution, and is contained in a rugged platform with low operating costs, allowing to use it for remote, unmanned operation. The extraordinary low drift of these instruments means they can operate for months without recalibration in most applications.
