Even trace amounts of carbon monoxide can contaminate ultra-high-purity gases, poison catalysts, reduce semiconductor yield, compromise hydrogen quality, and affect specialty gas production.
The HALO Max QCL CO continuously measures carbon monoxide at parts-per-trillion levels using Quantum Cascade Laser Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (QCL-CRDS), providing fast, continuous detection before contamination impacts production.
Built on our powerful Max platform, the HALO Max QCL CO offers:
✔️ Real-time, continuous monitoring
✔️ Fast and easy installation
✔️ Low maintenance with zero drift
✔️ Built-in zero verification
✔️ User-friendly interface in a robust, all-in-one package
This QCL-based analyzer perfectly complements our growing family of ultra-sensitive gas analyzers, including:
- HALO KA Max series (for H₂O, NH₃, and CH₄)
- HALO OK (for O₂)
- HALO Max QCL CO₂
Together, these advanced analyzers harness the power of Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) and Quantum Cascade Lasers to monitor a wide range of trace-level contaminants across semiconductor, industrial gas, and other high-purity applications.
