Infrared Detectors

IR detectors from LASER COMPONENTS offer numerous advantages in medical breath gas analysis. PbSe detectors, in particular, can detect even the smallest fluctuations in CO₂ concentration quickly and reliably. No additional cooling is required, allowing the compact components to be easily and efficiently integrated into ventilation and anesthesia devices.

In clinical practice, the CO₂ content of exhaled air is monitored to ensure that the patient is properly absorbing the administered oxygen. These detectors are characterized by high sensitivity, temperature stability, and low drift, enabling precise and low-maintenance long-term operation.

LASER COMPONENTS supplies leading manufacturers in the medical technology sector and works closely with these OEM partners to ensure fast and reliable delivery of these critical components.
