UAV-Based OTM-51 and GHG Monitoring

The PergamSniffer is an advanced UAV-mounted laser methane and ethane detector. Using laser absorption spectroscopy, it delivers precise measurements in while remaining immune to other gases. This makes it an effective tool not only for OTM-51 emissions detection, but also for greenhouse gas (GHG) monitoring and routine inspections. Lightweight and easy to deploy, the PergamSniffer offers remote control capability, integrated GPS positioning, and real-time dual-gas readings. Its extendable probes allow operation across different surfaces, while the built-in suction pump ensures reliable gas sampling.

PergamSniffer key features and advantages

  • Detects methane and ethane with no interference from other gases

  • Compact and lightweight

  • Remote control capability

  • Quick to deploy and easy to use

  • Extendable probes for all types of surfaces

  • GPS positioning of measured locations

  • Measurements in ppm

  • Built-in pump for air sampling

As the beam passes through the gas, some of the light is absorbed by its molecules. A sensor then captures the reflected light, and by analyzing how much was absorbed, the system determines the gas concentration.
The PergamSniffer draws air samples for analysis and uses TDLAS (Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) to provide precise detection of methane and ethane. The laser emits narrow beams at wavelengths matching the absorption profiles of target gases. As the beam passes through the gas, some of the light is absorbed by the molecules. A sensor then captures the reflected light and calculates the concentrations of methane and ethane based on the absorption.

Why methane detection matters

Methane and ethane monitoring is essential not just for safety, but also for protecting the environment. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, trapping heat much more effectively than carbon dioxide. Even small leaks, if left undetected, can grow and seriously impact the climate. Regular inspections help detect leaks early, prevent dangerous situations, and control emissions in accordance with environmental regulations.
