Gasera One Formaldehyde Gas Analyzer

MSE Supplies is an authorized distributor of Gasera Products in the US. Please fill out the application questionnaire and contact us to discuss the application and configurations.

Introduction

Formaldehyde levels above 0.1 ppm can cause acute health problems, e.g. sore throat, skin irritation, nausea, scratchy eyes and cough. It is also classified as highly carcinogenic compound. Exposure to moderate amounts of formaldehyde has been linked to cancer, such as leukemia.

GASERA ONE FORMALDEHYDE analyzer is based on combining ultra sensitive cantilever enhanced photoacoustic detection technology with Quantum Cascade Laser source operating at a Mid-IR fundamental spectral absorption line of formaldehyde. This combination provides enough sensitivity to reliably measure ambient background levels of formaldehyde. It also gives an exceptionally high level of stability with a re-calibration period ranging from several months up to several years, and thus it offers a low total cost of ownership.
