piD-TECH Plus Photoionization Sensor
Baseline - MOCON, Inc.Datasheet: piD-TECH Plus Photoionization Sensor
piD-TECH plus® Application Note: Total Volatile Organic Chemicals
The "piD-TECH plus" Plug-In Photoionization Sensor is designed to be installed in portable and stationary gas monitors that accept City Technology - 4P cells. It provides complete photoionization detection capability in a package that has the same dimensional and electrical profile as these cells.
This gives many gas monitors new and powerful detection capability that was previously unavailable. It opens up an incredible variety of environmental and safety applications in industrial, commercial and residential markets.
The piD-TECH plus sensor is offered in three models. They are virtually insensitive to humidity changes, providing unparalleled performance in a variety of applications. The piD-TECH plus Black Label has a linear dynamic range of 50ppb to 2,000ppm, the piD-TECH plus Bronze Label has linear dynamic range of 25ppb to 200ppm, and the piD-TECH plus Silver Label has linear dynamic range of 5ppb to 20ppm.
The sensor is based on a photoionization detector (PID). The sample gas is exposed to an ultraviolet light from a lamp. The light emitted by the lamp ionizes the targeted gases in the sample so they can be detected by the instrument and reported as a concentration. Chemicals such as VOCs with an ionization potential <10.6 eV will be detected by photoionization. Contact Baseline for a comprehensive ionization potential list.
