Inspectra

The INSPECTRA® LASER is a natural gas leak portable analyzer with laser spectroscopy. This highly sensitive detector offers all the advantages of optical detection in a highly compact and portable device, giving you precise and reliable findings when detecting methane leaks.

• Total selectivity to methane
• Extended measurement range, from 1ppm to 100% gas volume
• Methane high sensitivity, below 1 ppm
• ATEX certified, can be used safely indoors and outdoors as well as in hazardous areas
• User-friendly
• Minimal maintenance
• Traceability of surveys with the NGS survey software installed on a tablet and controlling the integrated GPS receiver
• Light weight, compact design for maximum working comfort (2,7 kg with batteries)
• Maximum operational autonomy: power supplied by rechargeable batteries
