smartGAS Germany as the market leader of industrial infrared gas sensors and SIGAS China with its more than 12 years of expertise in gas analyzers, sensors, environmental monitoring systems and industrial process analysis systems have entered into a strategic merger.

smartGAS Mikrosensorik GmbH will present innovative solutions for process efficiency and environmental protection at the ACHEMA, the world's leading trade fair for the process industry.

With the help of smartGAS sensors, users of the MAG-welding technology are now able to reduce their waste and improve the quality of their product. Many companies mixing their welding gases by themselves to lower the costs and to create variable gas mixtures.

Solving seemingly unsolvable problems and always having a creative idea or solution ready: That characterized Tim Loigge. In the column "Three questions to...", our employees introduce themselves personally and describe what makes their daily work so special.

smartGAS Mikrosensorik GmbH will present its product series for gas measurement at the SENSOR+TEST in Nuremberg in 2022. The sensors are based on the principle of non-dispersive infrared absorption of gases and meet the highest requirements for accuracy, reliability and economy.

Refrigerants have to become more environmentally friendly, as provided by the current F-Gas regulation. R445A is a new compliant refrigerant for this. In order to be able to detect it when a leak occurs, smartGAS has now adapted its sensors from its proven BasicEVO series.

Fully fluorinated (PFC) and partly fluorinated hydrocarbons (HFC) are used as refrigerants in many refrigeration systems due to their technically advantageous properties. Unfortunately, they are also flammable and very harmful to the climate. Therefore, strict requirements apply to refrigeration systems using these refrigerants.

A strong solidarity with the company and the ambition to continuously be part of the progress and innovation: That characterized Lars Becker. In the column "Three questions to...", our employees introduce themselves personally and describe what makes their daily work so special.

Most gases in process measurement technology do not come from clean environments and do not have a clearly defined composition. Combustion exhaust gases, biogas or ambient gases are always contaminated with dust or moisture. smartGAS offers know-how and suitable technology for application-optimised sample gas conditioning.

Nitrous oxide (N₂O), known by its trivial name “laughing gas”, is not only used in medicine. It is also used in the food industry as a propellant for spray whipped cream (E 942) or in aerospace technology to oxidise unwanted exhaust gases in rocket engines.
