Tips for successful gas monitoring
Before deciding on a gas measuring hood, you should precisely define the intended use and your requirements.
Take the following points into account:
- Use a standardized measurement procedure.
- Carry out correct and reproducible sampling. This also includes the use of suitable measuring devices and sampling points.
- Ensure that external influences are minimized as much as possible during the measurement. Stable ambient conditions, in particular temperature, humidity or air currents, should prevail during a measurement in the gas measuring chambers.
- Closed gas measuring chambers can cause pressure anomalies when the gas measuring chambers are placed on the soil. Use pressure equalization hoses or valves. Due to the enrichment of gases in closed gas measuring chambers, you should carry out a detailed interpretation of the measurement data in relation to "Brownian motion".
- Ensure complete air exchange under the gas measuring chambers after each measurement, otherwise there is a risk of carry-over of subsequent measurements and distortion of the measurement results.
Requirements for the gas measuring chambers
- Robust construction, including durable material
- Appropriate size and shape depending on the application: efficient detection of gases while ensuring sufficient air circulation (ventilation of the gas measuring chambers)
- Easy installation and handling
- Easy ventilation after each measurement
- Compatibility with various types of gas analyzers, flow meters or other sensor technology
- Integrated seals (gas-tight gas measuring chambers for accurate measurements)
- Easy to clean
We ensure that our gas measuring chambers meet these specific requirements, taking your individual needs and wishes into account.
