 The Picarro G1301-m CO2/CH4/H2O Analyzer is a real time, trace gas monitor capable of measuring these gases while on board aircraft changing altitude at up to 1000 meters per minute. The analyzer is based on Picarro’s unique Wavelength-Scanned Cavity Ring Down Spectroscopy (WS-CRDS), a time-based measurement utilizing a near-infrared laser to measure a spectral signature of the molecule. Gas is circulated in an optical measurement cavity with an effective path length of up to 20 kilometers. A patented, high-precision wavelength monitor makes certain that only the spectral feature of interest is being monitored, greatly reducing the analyzer’s sensitivity to interfering gas species. The precise temperature and pressure control systems designed into the Picarro G1301-m ensure accurate measurements over long periods of time.
