Laser Methane
AMMONIA

Laser Methane Ammonia (LMA) gas detector is designed using advanced Japanese technology. For many industries, accurate and rapid detection of ammonia is essential to prevent the gas from reaching dangerously toxic levels. The LMA is specifically engineered for efficient ammonia leak detection, offering a compact and high-performance solution.
Portable outdoor and indoor ammonia detector

Ammonia (NH₃) is widely used in various industries. It's a toxic gas that requires strict safety control. In high concentrations, ammonia can cause severe eye and respiratory irritation, and prolonged exposure can be fatal. In addition, at elevated concentrations, ammonia becomes combustible, posing additional risks to large industrial facilities. TGES has developed its own advanced gas analyzer to provide reliable detection and monitoring of ammonia leaks.

  • Works up to 8 hours on a single charge
    LMA equipped with a high-capacity lithium battery for a nonstop detection process.

How LMA works

Laser Methane Ammonia utilize TDLAS technology

TDLAS (Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) technology uses a tunable diode laser for precise gas analysis. The laser emits a focused beam of light at a specific wavelength that corresponds to the absorption characteristics of the target gas. When this beam interacts with the gas, some of the light is absorbed by the gas molecules. A sensor then captures the reflected beam, and the concentration of the gas is determined by measuring the intensity of reflected light.
