Instruction Manual 748467-A January 2002 Model MicroCEM The signal generation is accomplished with a pyroelectrical (solid-state) detector. The detector records the incoming infra- red radiation. This radiation is reduced by the absorption of the gas at the corre- sponding wavelengths. By comparing the measurement and reference wavelength, an alternating voltage signal is produced. This signal results from the cooling and heating of the pyroelectric detector mate- rial. CO CO 2 Absorption Band H
