\nThe laboratory houses one lab bench enose, the NST 3200. \u00a0This unit has 22 gas sensors (MOX and ISFET types). \u00a0The laboratory also has a Cyranose 320 hand-held enose. \u00a0The Cyranose instrument uses an array of nanocomposite sensors.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nThe MOL can help research groups test the performance, stability, and cross sensitivity of new gas sensor devices. \u00a0Below is an example test setup.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nAn Owlstone Humidity Generator (OHG-4) is available for use with the OVG-4 units. \u00a0Humidity levels from 1% to >90% are possible at flow rates for 30 to 3000 mL\/min.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nThe MOL can assist in the design, fabrication, and testing of new sensor chambers. \u00a0Stainless steel, machined Teflon, and 3D printed chambers have been demonstrated in past projects.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nThe split flow box (a laboratory device from Owlstone with three mass flow controllers). \u00a0These MFCs are used to mix and dilute gas streams generated by the OVG-4 units.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nTwo ZAGs (ZAG-6, F-DGSi, Evry, France) are available. \u00a0Each generates six liters per minute of particle-free, moisture-free, odor-free air.<\/span><\/p>\n
