LAS CH₂O

For monitoring: CH2O (Formaldehyde, Methanal)

Laser Absorption Spectroscopy based CH2O Analyzer

The TRACE-GAS CH2O analyzer combines reliability, fast response and ease of use in one instrument. Designed for calibration-free and direct measurement of formaldehyde (CH2O).

You want to directly measure CH2O in your exhaust gas? We can provide a solution for hot-wet measurements with our LASmini! Send an enquiry here.

  • no cross sensitivities
