The EM 27 Open Path Spectrometer is an FT-IR Remote Sensing analyzer that is specially designed for utilization in atmospheric measurements that makes use of a CAMTracker system which is a revolutionary camera-based feedback system that uses the sun as its light source. It is purposefully built into a tightly-packed and resilient structure and has the capability to provide exemplary optical performance which makes it the perfect solution for long term measurement campaigns in distant locations with little infrastructure.
The EM 27 has several distinct characteristics including high-precision quantifications, exceptional tracking accuracy, real-time analysis along with remarkable portability and robustness.
The EM 27/SUN series spectrometers represent FT-IR remote sensing analyzers dedicated to atmospheric measurements. For these spectrometers, the sun serves as the light source, followed by a camera-based solar tracker. They quantify gases such as carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere by analyzing the absorption spectra of sunlight.
The EM 27/SUN provides a very compact and robust design, relatively low weight, and an intuitive user interface. They are highly portable and hence ideally suited for measurement campaigns in remote areas with little infrastructure. Combined with our high-resolution FT-IR spectrometer IFS 125HR and high-precision laser-based gas analyzer MGA series, we provide customers with a diverse range of complementary solutions for greenhouse gas (GHG) analysis and atmospheric research.
