SBA-5 CO2 Gas Analyzer

Since 1984, PP Systems has partnered up with many OEM customers offering custom solutions that meet a wide variety of applications. Our SBA-5 CO2 gas analyzer has the enviable reputation for being high quality, reliable, stable, accurate, and versatile. It can be supplied on a printed circuit board (for easy integration into an existing system) or in a convenient, lightweight, rugged, anodized aluminum enclosure.

The design of the SBA-5 ensures inherent calibration stability confirmed by over 40 years of experience in gas analysis technology. The SBA-5 features a non-dispersive, infrared measurement technique coupled with microprocessor-based signal processing resulting in precise measurement of CO2. Our innovative “Auto-Zero” technology and insulated, thermostatically controlled optical bench ensure fast warm-up, long-term stability, accuracy, and analyzer calibration. It also minimizes the effects of sample cell contamination, IR source aging, changes in detector sensitivity, and pre-amplifier gain.

The SBA-5 can be supplied with one of two optical benches calibrated to a specific range. One bench is optimized for CO2 measurement ranges up to 30000 ppm and another for ranges above 30000 up to 100000 ppm. Users can recalibrate the gas analyzer to a new level provided it is within the range for that particular optical bench.

The SBA-5 is user-programmable making it a perfect solution for custom applications. Windows-based software (GAS) is also available for use with the SBA-5 for monitoring and logging sensor data.
