LI-COR LI-7815 Trace Gas Analyzer Philippines

High precision CO2 monitoring

The LI-COR LI-7815 CO2/H2O Trace Gas Analyzer provides exceptionally stable and precise measurements for long-term atmospheric monitoring measurements. CO2 measurements drift less than 0.2 ppm per 24-hour period with 0.04 ppm precision (1σ, with 5-second averaging) at 400 ppm CO2 in dry air at STP.

Exceptionally stable and precise measurements

The LI-7815 CO2/H2O Gas Analyzer provides stable and precise CO2 measurements in a rugged, portable, and cost-effective design.

LI-7815 Long-Term Outdoor CO2 Stability

LI-7815 Long-Term Outdoor CO2 Stability
Thirty-day CO2 stability data from an LI-7815 CO2/H2O analyzer. A single instrument was operated outdoors continuously over the entire time period, measuring ambient air between stability checks. During stability checks, the analyzer was flushed for 10 minutes with tank gas (2 ppm CH4, 400 ppm CO2 mixed in air balance, 1% nominal concentration accuracy) and a time series data set was subsequently recorded for 10 minutes every 12 hours. The figure shows the mean value of the 10-minute measurements. Error bars represent a 1σ confidence interval (68%).

Figure 2. 24-hour CO2 stability data from an LI-7815 CO2/H2O analyzer (top). The instrument was operated continuously over a 24-hour period with a continuous flow of tank gas. The blue line shows 1-second measurements; the diamond line shows a 50-minute block average. Allan deviation plot (bottom) of CO2 measurements from an LI-7815 measuring 402.3 ppm CO2 shows precision at 1-second signal averaging, with improved precision as averaging time increases. Error bars represent 68% (±1σ) confidence intervals based on number of averaged time series available at each τ.

Features

What makes LI-COR different?

LI-COR offers hardware, software, and analyzers that are based on extensive scientific research and testing. Patented designs minimize disruption of natural soil gas transport across the soil surface and record high-precision flux measurements to evaluate spatial and temporal variability.

Together, this integrated system provides an entirely comprehensive research solution for measuring large- and small-scale events—including CO2, CH4, or N2greenhouse gas emissions.

Designed for flexibility and convenience

LI-COR soil gas flux systems combine more than 20 years of experience with the latest innovations for flexibility and convenience.

LI-COR Soil Flux System with Smart Chamber, LI-8250 Multiplexer, LI-7810 Trace Gas Analyzer and LI-870 Gas Analyzer.

Tailored for dependable practicality

Each LI-COR gas analyzer is portable, durable, and simple to deploy—allowing you to take CO2CH4, and N2survey and long-term measurements with ease.

Engineered to reduce artificial impact

The importance of soil gas flux chambers to take accurate measurements is often underestimated. An inherent challenge to chamber design is the influence the chamber may have on measurements.

All LI-COR chambers are designed to minimize chamber interference on the natural soil gas flux, and gas production and consumption, leading to accurate, consistent measurements.
