Hardware Components
Optical Bench
The optical bench is an airtight chamber that contains the sample gas. The
bench includes mirrors that cause the infrared light from the infrared source
to pass through the sample gas multiple times before reaching the infrared
detector.
Band-pass Filter
The band-pass filter limits the light entering the optical bench to a narrow
band of the infrared portion of the spectrum.
Bench Heater Board
The bench heater board applies power to the bench heater resistors and
transmits the bench temperature monitored by a thermistor. This assembly
is used for maintaining the optical bench at a constant temperature.
Chopper Motor
The chopper motor spins the gas filter wheel and chopper disk at a uniform
speed.
