Product catalog summary
Technical Specifications Overview
  • Electrical Specifications: Power consumption ranges from 80 mW to 200 mW depending on supply voltage, which is between 3.2 to 5.5 VDC. The output signal varies from 0.040 to 2.85 V.
  • Environmental Conditions: The device operates between -20°C to 60°C and can handle relative humidity from 0 to 95% non-condensing with near-zero sensitivity to humidity up to 75% RH.
  • Performance: The detector targets VOCs with ionisation potentials less than 10.6 eV. It has a minimum detection level of 10 ppb and a linear range up to 200 ppm. The response time is 2 seconds with a warm-up time of 5 seconds.
  • Physical Characteristics: The device weighs less than 8 grams and has no position sensitivity. It includes an onboard filter to remove liquids and particulates, and the lamp and electrode stack are user-replaceable.
  • Warranty and Patents: The electronics and housing have a 24-month warranty, while the lamp has a 12-month warranty. The product is covered by US Patent 6,646,444 and Japan Patent 3,793,757.
Replacement Parts and Consumables
  • Various parts such as gas hood, cap with key, and filters are available for maintenance and replacement.
  • Maintenance and sensor rebuild kits are offered, including lamps and filters.
Figures and Graphs
  • Figure 2 illustrates the linear response of 20 sensors across the operating range.
  • Figure 3 demonstrates the temperature dependence of sensor sensitivity, aligning with the ideal gas law.
Additional Information
  • For further details, contact Alphasense Ltd. or visit their website.
  • Disposal instructions are provided for the end of the product's life.
