PID (Photoionization Detector) sensors

A PID (Photoionization Detector) sensor is a device used to detect and measure the presence of airborne chemicals or gases. It works by using ultraviolet light to ionize, or charge, gas molecules in the air sample. The ionized molecules create an electrical current that the detector measures, indicating the concentration of hazardous substances. PIDs are highly sensitive, capable of detecting very low levels of gases like volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making them valuable for safety, environmental monitoring, and industrial applications. They provide quick, real-time data on air quality, helping to identify and manage potential health or safety risks.
