High Dynamic Range Operation Modes of Analyzers in R&D Applications 2000-05-0349

Increasing requirements for the result quality of exhaust emission analyzers and state of the art analyzer technology require a new point of view regarding measuring range definitions and linearization procedures. To make best use of the power of this analyzer technology, linearizaton procedures need reconsideration.

Although for certification the linearization procedures to be applied on an emission analyzer are define clearly, for research and development applications, no prescriptions are existing. Therefore non sophisticated routines, that assist the full potential of new analyzers may be employed.
