Exhaust gas analyzer Exhaust gas analyzer An exhaust gas analyser or exhaust CO analyser is an instrument for the measurement of carbon monoxide among other gases in the exhaust, caused by an incorrect combustion, the Lambda coefficient measurement is the most common. The principles used for CO sensors (and other types of gas) are infrared gas sensors (NDIR) and chemical gas sensors. "Carbon monoxide sensors are" used to assess the CO amount during an MOT test. In order to be used for such test it must be approved as suitable for use in the scheme. In UK a list of acceptable exhaust gas
Flue gas Flue gas Flue gas is the gas exiting to the atmosphere via a flue, which is a pipe or channel for conveying exhaust gases from a fireplace, oven, furnace, boiler or steam generator. Quite often, the flue gas refers to the combustion exhaust gas produced at power plants. Its composition depends on what is being burned, but it will usually consist of mostly nitrogen (typically more than two-thirds) derived from the combustion of air, carbon dioxide (), and water vapor as well as excess oxygen (also derived from the combustion air). It further contains a small percentage of a number
