Honeywell high performance AQ7 gas sensors are engineered for ambient environmental air monitoring applications. Advances in technology have led to exciting and rewarding improvements in living standards but have also contributed significantly to a variety of serious environmental issues. Among these are the release of many types of chemical pollutants into the atmosphere that contribute to global and local environmental issues such as the greenhouse effect, sick-house syndrome, and ozone depletion.
To meet these new gas-sensing challenges, Honeywell is committed to providing high-resolution, compact, robust, accurate, and reliable gas sensors for use in non-industrial environmental applications.
Honeywell is introducing the AQ7 Series Gas Sensors that offer high resolution and low detection limits as well as high correlation with control stations for ambient air quality (AAQ) applications. The 4-electrode electrochemical technology is highly sensitive to low gas concentrations in the range of parts per billion (ppb). These sensors provide accurate measurements and have excellent gas specificity.
The AQ7 Series has the lowest sensor sensitivity decay over its full lifespan, which translates into the most stable and reliable sensors for environmental applications in the current market. Because the sensor is provided with individual sensor parameters, users are able to compensate for environmental effects.
The compact design of Honeywell AQ Series Gas Sensors sizes them well for portable AAQ applications. They can be used over an extensive range of gases and their ability to monitor extremely low gas concentrations, provide signal-to-noise ratio at lower detection limits, and offer full compensation for temperature and humidity using baseline offset, which combined with their high correlation with control station parameters makes them ideal for AAQ applications.
