High-Precision Laser-Based Dew Point Analyzer with Ultrafast Response Enabled by Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) Technology

TDLAS Dew Point Moisture Analyzer (H2O) T-1

Dew Point Range: -70 °C DP to 20 °C DP

The TDLAS T-1 is a dew point analyzer that uses Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology to rapidly measure moisture concentration in low dew point ranges.

It accurately captures rapid fluctuations in low dew points, which are challenging for conventional methods such as capacitive type or chilled mirror techniques. The analyzer achieves high-precision measurements through proprietary sensor sensitivity enhancement technology.

Additionally, its corrosion-resistant design ensures excellent long-term stability and reliability, even in environments containing corrosive gases.

All-in-One Package for Enhanced Precision

A built-in vacuum pump draws sample gas into the detection chamber (cell). By reducing the pressure to 1/10 of an atmosphere, this proprietary technology enhances the sensitivity of TDLAS, enabling highly precise measurements of low dew points.

Dew Point Measurement Unaffected by Corrosive or Mixed Gases

Conventional dew point meters or hygrometers struggle with reliable measurements in environments containing organic solvents, acids, or alkaline gases. The TDLAS T-1 overcomes these challenges, delivering stable and accurate dew point measurements. It supports measurement in a variety of gas types, so please contact us for further details regarding specific applications.

Ultrafast Response

For rapid dew point changes, such as from 0 °C DP to -50 °C DP, conventional dew point meters (green line in the graph) typically require several minutes to tens of minutes to stabilize. In contrast, the TDLAS T-1 (red line in the graph) achieves a 90% response within 6 seconds, delivering unprecedented ultrafast response performance.

Step Response (-50 °C DP ⇔ 0 °C DP)

Reliable Measurement Data

  • Performance evaluations were conducted in collaboration with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), a leading national research institute in Japan.
  • Every unit shipped undergoes comparative calibration against in-house standard instruments that are traceable to national standards provided by AIST.

Easy Operation & Data Output Functions

  • 5-inch touch panel enables intuitive dew point measurement.
  • Bundled software supports PC monitoring and data logging.
  • Analog, digital, and relay outputs are available for external integration.
