Abstract

See full text

A multiple-channel photo-ionization detector (PID) determines the concentrations of specific gases or classes of gases. The PID includes a UV lamp, an optical window which is divided into multiple zones with each zone producing a UV light beam having a distinctive maximum photon energy. The ionization chamber of the PID includes multiple ion detectors. The PID measures ionization currents and concentrations of gases ionizable by each UV light beam. A method of determining the concentrations and/or identifications of the individual component gases uses differences and/or ratios of measured concentrations or currents.
