2B Technologies Model 405 NM NO2 NO NOx Monitor Only 574 Total Hours - 120 Volts
Web Information The Model 405 nm NOx Monitor ("nm" for "nanometer" and for "NOx Monitor") is designed for the direct measurement of atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitric oxide (NO) and total reactive oxides of nitrogen (NOx = NO + NO2) in the concentration range 0-10,000 ppb (0-10 ppm) for NO2 and 0-2,000 ppb (0-2 ppm) for NO with high precision and accuracy. In this instrument NO2 is measured directly by absorbance at 405 nm. NO is measured by selective conversion with ~100% efficiency using the highly selective reaction of NO with ozone (O3). Total NOx is obtained by addition of NO and NO2. Unlike chemiluminescence instruments where NO2 must be converted to NO using either a molybdenum or photolytic converter with highly variable efficiency, in the Model 405 NOx Monitor nitrogen dioxide is measured directly by absorbance, analogous to an ozone monitor. Because NO2 has a much lower absorption cross section than ozone, a folded cell with corner mirrors is used to produce a l
