The transmission through the gas of the IR energy at about 4.7µm is affected by
the concentration of CO. Figure 5 illustrates how the energy within the selected
band varies with CO concentration.
The shape of this curve is fixed by the characteristics of the 4.7µm filter - it
cannot change, and the curve is practically flat at CO concentrations of above
10,000 ppm.metres. A cross-duct monitor effectively measures CO molecules in
its optical path, so the same concentration of CO will have a greater effect across
a large measurement path than a small measurement path. The term
ppm.metres is the concentration of CO within the duct multiplied by the gas path
length over which it has been measured.
