MIRA Sentinel LDS

Monitor Natural Gas Leaks with Unmatched Sensitivity, Accuracy and Thermogenic vs. Biogenic Discrimination
The autonomous MIRA Sentinel LDS is a high sensitivity/accuracy natural gas leak detection system that combines a breakthrough, real-time laser absorption spectrometer with built-in GPS and anemometer capability to produce the world’s most powerful, autonomous leak-measurement tool.
The Sentinel LDS operates in the mid-infrared, achieving unparalleled, simultaneous methane and ethane quantification at the 1ppb/s level, while achieving long-term low ppt level repeatability. Natural gas is discriminated from common interfering methane sources such as vehicle exhaust and biogenic sources such as landfill and sewer gas. The unique ethane capability provides a natural gas discrimination capability 50 times greater than that of other laser-based analyzers, reducing false alarms that otherwise trigger unnecessary and costly leak surveys. Sentinel LDS systems come in a autonomous package, with a solar panel, internal back-up battery and advanced sampling system.

Key Features:

  • Superior sensitivity: <2ppb/s CH4 , <300ppt/s C2H6
  • Real-time analytics, statistics
  • Ultra-High sensitivity and accuracy
  • Low-Drift via thermally stabilized optical core
  • 1 or 2 Hz operation standard, up to 10 Hz optional
  • High accuracy GPS, magnetically mounted antennae
  • Wifi, RS232, 4G data streaming capability
  • Low power consumption, solar powered options
  • Robust optical platform: 100x less sensitive to contamination than “cavity-based” systems
  • Water vapor measured to report dry mole fractions via polynomial correction up to 31000 ppm H2O
  • Data in ASCII format for rapid visualisation
  • Rapid install: no specific modifications required.
