CATALYTIC CONVERTER

 
In order to protect life and the
environment, the emission of nitric oxides must be reduced and
monitored. To allow the use of cost-effective analysis methods, e.g.
infrared technology for monitoring the NO2 content in the
emitted gas, the sample is catalytically converted to NO. This is
achieved by using electrically heated small reactors filled with
various catalyst materials for different applications. Energy-efficient
operation of these NOx converters requires the operating
temperature to be as low as possible. This also will prevent CO
production. “Long life” reactor cartridges are available to ensure
extended operation.
