The ID100 is the first truly portable FTIR gas analyzer in the world. The lightweight analyzer module is located in durable Teflon coated backpack. The ID100 analyzer houses a Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, Rhodium-Gold coated sample cell and signal processing electronics. The sample gas is extracted into the sample cell with a pistol-type probe. Hence no sample preparation is needed.

The ID100 is designed for on-site measurements of different compounds (both organic & inorganic) at low concentrations in ambient air. Typical usage areas include industrial hygiene and emergency response situations. Analysis results are displayed on screen of a military grade PDA.

Optionally, the analyzer can be connected with a laptop PC for extended analysis capability (e.g. identification of unknown compounds with library spectra). There are no consumable parts that would need replacing on regular basis. In addition, due to FTIR technology, the calibrations remain very stable. Hence no span calibrations are needed. Also, cross-interferences (i.e. interference from other gases) are automatically compensated in the analysis algorithm during the calculation of the results.

The ID100 is ideal to be used with the ChemPro®100 Detector. This enables rapid detection and accurate analysis of the detected threat.
