Dear List,

I'm looking for instruments that can detect ammonia gas and or vapors. Trying to find company that provide this kind of instruments.

I'm interested specially on the open path gas detect method.

Thanks in advance

I have no experience with the following vendors in this regard but I believe that the following vendors supply open path analyzers that can measure ammonia:

GasCam from OptiGas - www.optigas.com
GasFinder from Boreal Laser - www.boreal-laser.com
AIM - www.aimanalysis.com

A couple of other open path analyzer manufacturers that might have something:

Draeger www.draeger.com
Spectrex www.spectrex-inc.com

I will also have a short article in CONTROL magazine on Open Path Analyzers in the October issue.
