Abstract

A circuit for measuring the relative absorption signals from an infrared detector to measure gas concentrations in the detector, wherein an absorption gas wavelength signal is compared to a reference gas wavelength signal, through circuits and a computer processor, together having automatic compensation for absorption variables and which permit the measurement of gas absorption by use of Beer's Law equations.
