Description
Nitrolux®-S is an innovative ambient level ammonia sensor developed by Pranalytica, Inc., designed specifically for measuring ammonia concentrations near emission sources such as agricultural and animal farms. This state-of-the-art sensor is compact and lightweight, leveraging semiconductor laser technology to ensure precise measurements. Its low electrical power consumption makes it an ideal choice for battery-operated setups, particularly in locations where utility power is unavailable. Additionally, the Nitrolux®-S can be powered by an optional solar panel, which also serves to recharge the batteries, enabling uninterrupted operation in remote areas without the need for constant supervision.
The versatility of the Nitrolux®-S is further enhanced by optional features such as a GPS receiver, which allows for continuous location monitoring, and wireless connectivity for remote operation. Encased in a NEMA-4 cabinet, the sensor is well-protected from environmental elements like rain and dust, ensuring reliable performance in field conditions while consistently delivering accurate ammonia concentration data.
Pranalytica, Inc., an ISO 9001 Certified Company, stands behind the quality and reliability of the Nitrolux®-S. For more information or inquiries, please contact Mr. Frank McGuire at (310) 458-4493 or via email at fxmcguire@pranalytica.com.
