UGT Portable Gas Measuring Chamber (transparent)

The transparent portable gas measuring chamber is one of the closed systems in which the chamber is only closed for a short time depending on the application and then installed at a new measuring location. It is used to determine the exchange capacities of gases between the plants or soil and the atmosphere. The gases emitted during soil respiration, for example, are collected in the polycarbonate chmaber inside the soil frame and extracted through the connection opening at the top of the hood.

The chambers are available as open path or closed path applications:

• The open path application is a non-recirculating system where a small amount of gas sample is taken through a connection port (out) with a gas analyzer.

• The closed path application is a recirculating system (loop) in which gas samples are taken via the connection opening (out) with a gas analyzer.

With these two methods, all gases generated under the chamber can be measured in the gas analyzer (if designed for this). In the event that hoods are fitted quickly, the chambers can be equipped with a pressure equalization valve or pressure equalization hose. This reduces the overpressure when the hood is fitted quickly.
