Model 205 Dual Beam Ozone Monitor

The Model 205 Dual Beam Ozone Monitor makes use of two detection cells to improve precision, baseline stability, and response time. In the Dual Beam instrument, UV light intensity measurements Io (ozone-scrubbed air) and I(unscrubbed air) are made simultaneously. Combined with other improvements, this made it possible to reduce the time between ozone measurements to 2 seconds, making our instrument the fastest UV-based ozone monitor on the market, while still retaining the small size, weight, and power requirements of our popular Model 202 Ozone Monitor.

Fast measurements are especially desirable for aircraft and balloon measurements where high spatial resolution is needed. For 10-s averaging, a precision of 1.0 ppb is achieved. Alternatively, one can choose to average more points internally to obtain even better precision. Flash card memory and a long-life, quiet internal air sampling pump are now standard on the instrument.

The Model 205 Dual Beam Ozone Monitor has been approved by the EPA as a Federal Equivalent Method (FEM) based on a modification of the Model 202: 
EQOA-0410-190.

Features:
  • Quiet long-life internal air pump (now standard)
  • Low power consumption (~8 watt)
  • Internal data logger (EEPROM), logs 16,383 lines of data
  • Both serial and user-scalable analog voltage outputs (4-20 mA current output optional)
  • Flash card memory (SD card) for virtually unlimited, portable data storage
  • Three 0-2.5 VDC analog inputs for logging other measurements, such as external temperature, pressure, and humidity
  • Convenient user interface to microprocessor, including calibration parameters (gain and zero)
  • Selectable measurement time of 2 s or data averaging times of 10 s, 1 min, 5 min and 1 hr (custom averaging times available)
  • DewLine™ for elimination of any water vapor interference, a unique feature of 2B Tech instruments
  • Dual beam feature allows for heightened precision and improved baseline stability for applications where high spatial resolution is required.
