An electronic nose capable of recognising and measuring all odours, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, operating outdoors independently under all weather conditions. Called EOS Ambiente, it will be presented by Sacmi at the Rimini-held Ecomondo trade fair (Hall C1 stand no. 008) from 7 to 10 November. This device is unique in that it can monitor not only potentially harmful emissions but also those that are simply unpleasant, such as those emitted by refineries or refuse disposal facilities.
EOS Ambiente can count on a pneumatic external air sampling system and on cutting-edge semi-conductor metal oxide gas sensors thorugh which it detects the olfactory ‘footprint’ of each substance, recognising the substance precisely and measuring its concentration exactly. The system responds to various odorous concentrations in much the same way as human panels work in laboratories as per UNI EN 13725, which clearly defines the scale of odour measurement with the concept of the “odour unit”.
This year EOS Ambiente has been renewed with a more stylish, modern exterior look, new odour recognition and classification software and several improvements to the air sampling system, all to ensure unparalleled measuring precision.
