Description

Ultrarotstrahlungsmeßgerät für die Gasanalyse Bei den bekannten Ultrarotstrahlungsmeßgeräten durchdringt die von einem oder zwei Temperaturstrahlern ausgehende Strahlung auf zwei Strahlungswegen eine Meßkammer mit dem Gas, dessen Zusammensetzung bestimmt werden soll, und eine Vergleichskammer mit einem neutralen Gas. Die in der Meßkammer bzw. der Vergleichskammer nicht absorbierte Strahlung trifft auf je einen Empfänger. Die beiden Empfänger sind in Differenz geschaltet und wirken selektiv, d. h., sie absorbieren im wesentlichen die gleiche Strahlung wie das zu untersuchende Gas. Bei derartigen Geräten wird die Anzeige häufig durch Beimengungen von Kohlendioxyd in dem zu untersuchenden Gasgemisch gestört. Kohlendioxyd besitzt eine sehr intensive Strahlenabsorption in einem engen Wellenlängenbereich um 4,25 . Selbst geringe Beimengungen von Kohlendioxyd, wie sie in der Luft enthalten sind, wirken sich bereits störend aus. Durch Versuche wurde gefunden, daß sich der C O2-Einfluß beseitigen läßt, wenn gemäß der Erfindung in mindestens einem Strahlungsweg eine Platte, Scheibe oder Folie aus Tetrafluoräthylen eingeschaltet ist. Es wurde ermittelt, daß Tetrafluoräthylen, das unter dem Handelsnamen »Teflon« in Gebrauch ist, eine sehr intensive Absorptionsbande im Strahlungsgebiet von 4,25 P zeigt, die nur 0,6 cm breit ist. Das Material hat nach kleineren Wellenlängen hin keine weiteren störenden Absorptionsbanden, so daß die Anzeige anderer Gase nicht beeinflußt wird. Außerdem ist es bis zu Wellenlängen von 7,5 p durchlässig. Es kann somit in einem verhältnismäßig breiten Spektralgebiet der Einfluß des Kohlendioxyds ausgeschaltet werden.Ultrared radiation measuring device for gas analysis In the known ultrared radiation measuring devices penetrates the radiation emanating from one or two thermal radiators two radiation paths a measuring chamber with the gas, whose composition is determined and a comparison chamber with a neutral gas. The one in the measuring chamber or the radiation not absorbed by the comparison chamber hits one receiver each. The two receivers are connected in a differential mode and act selectively, i. h., they absorb essentially the same radiation as the gas to be examined. In such devices, the display is often due to the addition of carbon dioxide disturbed in the gas mixture to be examined. Carbon dioxide is very intense Radiation absorption in a narrow wavelength range around 4.25. Even small admixtures carbon dioxide, as it is contained in the air, already have a disturbing effect the end. Experiments have found that the C O2 influence can be eliminated if according to the invention in at least one radiation path a plate, disc or Tetrafluoroethylene film is switched on. It has been determined that tetrafluoroethylene, which is in use under the trade name "Teflon", a very intense absorption band in the radiation area of 4.25 P, which is only 0.6 cm wide. The material has after smaller wavelengths no further interfering absorption bands, so that the display of other gases is not influenced. Plus it's up to wavelengths of 7.5 p permeable. It can thus cover a relatively wide spectral range the influence of carbon dioxide can be eliminated.

In der schematischen Darstellung der Zeichnung wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeigt. An exemplary embodiment is shown in the schematic representation of the drawing of the invention shown.

In einem Strahlungsmeßgerät bekannten Aufbaues trifft die Strahlung zweier gleichartiger Temperaturstrahler 1 und 2 durch eine Meßkammer 3 und eine Vergleichskammer 4 auf die Empfängerkammern 5 und 6. Die Kammer 3 wird von dem zu untersuchenden Gasgemisch durchströmt, während die Kammer 4 ein neutrales Vergleichsgas enthält. Die Kammern 5 und 6 sind gewöhnlich mit dem gleichen Gas gefüllt, dessen Gehalt in dem Gasgemisch bestimmt werden soll, das die Kammer 3 durchströmt. Als Meßeffekt wird die Temperaturdifferenz in den Kammern 5 und 6 mittels bekannter Widerstandsthermometer bestimmt. In dem Strahlungsweg, der die Meßkammer durchsetzt, befindet sich gemäß der Erfindung eine Folie 7 aus Tetrafluoräthylen, welche die Absorptionsbande des Kohlendioxyds eliminiert. Die Folie hat zweckmäßig eine Dicke von 0,1 bis 0,3 mm. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß eine solche Folie bei einem auf Methan ansprechenden Gasanalysegerät die unerwünschte Empfindlichkeit für Kohlendioxyd mindestens um den Faktor 3 herabsetzt. Die Anzeigeempfindlichkeit für Methan wird praktisch nicht verringert.The radiation strikes in a radiation measuring device of known construction two similar temperature radiators 1 and 2 through a measuring chamber 3 and one Comparison chamber 4 to the receiving chambers 5 and 6. The chamber 3 is from the to gas mixture to be examined flows through, while chamber 4 is a neutral reference gas contains. Chambers 5 and 6 are usually filled with the same gas, whose Content in the gas mixture is to be determined, which flows through the chamber 3. as The temperature difference in chambers 5 and 6 is measured using a known measuring effect Resistance thermometer determined. In the radiation path that penetrates the measuring chamber, is according to the invention a film 7 made of tetrafluoroethylene, which the Absorption band of carbon dioxide eliminated. The film expediently has a thickness from 0.1 to 0.3 mm. It has been shown that such a film is based on methane appealing gas analyzer the unwanted sensitivity to carbon dioxide reduced by at least a factor of 3. The display sensitivity for methane will be practically not reduced.
