The MIRA Pico CH₄/C₂H₆
analyzer operates in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) spectrum, delivering unmatched simultaneous sensitivity to methane (CH₄) and ethane (C₂H₆) with a fast response time. It effectively distinguishes natural gas from biogenic sources—such as landfill gas, cattle operations, wetland gas, and permafrost—with exceptional precision. This unique capability offers discrimination accuracy significantly greater than that of other laser-based analyzers, all within a compact design.
This reduces false alarms and enables real-time, accurate ethane-to-methane ratio measurements.
The MIRA Pico CH₄/C2H₆ analyzer delivers the same accurate ethane-to-methane ratios of comparable analytical techniques at a fraction of the cost. Pico offers real-time measurements while eliminating the need for extensive sample handling or consumables.
