-1- EIGD Limited 80/2079/04 An Infrared Absorption Gas Detector ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An infrared absorption gas detector uses the amount of infrared radiation of a particular wavelength to give an indication of the presence of a particular component or a particular gas. A monitoring head for such a detector includes a source (8) of infrared radiation, two detectors (17, 18) for detecting infrared radiation formed by the two elements of a dual element detector, an optical path which extends between the source (8) and the elements (17, 18) of the detector and which includes a gas sample volume, and selectively transmitting spectral filters (20, 21) immediately infront of the dual elements (17, 18) of the detector to filter the radiation impinging on the detectors (17, 18). The optical path also includes converging means (9) to provide a converging beam of radiation concentrated onto both elements (17, 18) of the dual element detector. The location of the gas sample volume, the separation of the two elements (17, 18) of the detector, and the converging means (9) are arranged so that infrared radiation emitted by the source (8) and impinging upon each of the elements (17, 18) of the detector follows a substantially common path through the gas sample volume. The monitoring head operates, in effect, as a single beam in both space and time whilst having no moving parts whatsoever.
