Portable Electronic Nose

Intelligent Chemical Sensor for identification of gases and vapours

The PEN, also called E-Nose, is our small, fast and robust identification system for gases and gas mixtures. The detection of the gases is performed with an array of gas sensors.
Single compounds or mixtures of gases can be identified, after a training stage, by using the pattern generated from the sensors.

Using various algorithms, the instrument is able to identify up to 10 different compounds, or provides a straightforward answer like "Good-Bad", "Yes-No" depending on the needs of the user. The instrument can also deliver a quantitative statement.

Because of its particular sampling strategy our detector can be operated in the laboratory, or in mobile applications in the environment as well as online for process control applications.
