What is a Tunable Diode Laser spectrometer?

Tunable diode laser spectrometers, or TDL spectrometers for short, are gas analyzers that are used for measuring the concentration of specific species within a gas mixture, using laser absorption spectrometry. In a TDL spectrometer, a laser beam, tuned to identify a particular gas species, passes through the gas to a detector. The presence of this gas in the stream causes light absorption and reduced signal intensity. The light that arrives at the detector of the TDL spectrometer is captured by a photodiode and analyzed to quantify the gas concentration.

What gas species can be measured with a TDL spectrometer?

METTLER TOLEDO GPro 500 TDL analyzers offer measurement of carbon monoxide (CO%), carbon dioxide (CO2%), hydrogen chloride (HCl), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), gaseous oxygen (O2), methane, ammonia and moisture. These can be paired with a wide range of process adaptions to provide the tunable diode laser analyzer to meet your requirements. For example, an oxygen gas analyzer can be paired with a filter probe to allow you to install an oxygen TDL analyzer in a gas stream that has a heavy particulate content. That same oxygen gas analyzer can be paired with a wafer adaption to create an in-line TDL gas analyzer for oxygen in a small line size (down to DN50).
