New PID Sensor Range from Alphasense Delivers Wider Choice and Superior Value Proposition for Industrial Safety & Air Quality Monitoring

Alphasense, an industry-leading manufacturer of sensors for air quality monitoring, gas detection and industrial applications, has increased its product portfolio with a new range of photoionisation detection (PID) sensors, offering customers a broader choice of detection ranges, short lead times and exceptional value.

Offering the highest quality and unparalleled performance in a variety of applications including the harshest of conditions, the new range of PID sensors is held in stock at Alphasense’s UK factory, ready to be shipped.

With a choice of five PID sensor models, each with a specific detection range, Alphasense’s customers can now match PID sensors to their specific applications. Models include 0-20ppm, 0-40ppm, 0-200ppm, 0-4,000ppm and 0-10,000ppm variants.

Alphasense PIDs measure Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to extremely low concentrations, with a detection range down to 1 ppb on the most sensitive model. The new range boasts rapid response times, superior baseline stability and is virtually unaffected by humidity/temperature changes. This next-generation range of PID products is covered by a 12-month warranty on lamps/ 24-month warranty on other components, features a user-replaceable electrode stack/particulate filter and is backed up by the first-class technical support Alphasense customers are accustomed to.
