Fine! What would it take to build a sensor based on this physics http://www.habmigern2003.info/future_trends/infrared_analyser/ndir/IR-Absorption-GB.html ? One IR-LED and maybe 4 photo diodes, or a prism combined with a linear CCD? Some slow ADCs in a cheap MCU. It seems possible to do this

I am certainly no expert in this area, but the specs call it NDIR and there is a wikipedia page on that topic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondispersive_infrared_sensor Andre On 03/07/2013 07:34 AM, David Jonsson wrote: Hi How does a infrared gas meter like this one work?
