Using Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology, the Automotive Microbench (AMBII) measures levels of CO, CO2 and HC in engine exhaust. The AMBII exceeds all current recognized international specifications, including California's BAR97, OIML Class 0, and ISO3930. With a low voltage supply requirement, compact size, and flexible sample flow, AMB II offers savings on peripherals and allows the design of a truly portable gas analyzer.
