BLACK BOX

Photoacoustic IR Ammonia Gas Detection
BLACK BOX by TOMIGUNN is an ammonia gas detection sensor that uses photoacoustic infrared technology to give you accurate ammonia-level data down to 1 ppm.

BLACK BOX does not need constant calibration, and because the ammonia detection takes place in the control room and not in the house, the instrument is protected from the corrosive effect exposure to ammonia vapor can cause.

The ammonia sniffer collects an air sample at a given location and returns it to the photoacoustic analyzer in the BLACK BOX control panel. Sniffer location points are placed 10 inches from the litter at bird level.

Description

Bird-Level Measurements
BLACK BOX collects air quality samples at predetermined locations. Location points are placed 10 inches from the litter at bird level. A vacuum transports the air sample to the infrared sensing technology located in the control room, where the sample data is analyzed for accurate ammonia concentration levels.

BLACK BOX ammonia sensor includes up to eight ammonia collection points strategically placed in the poultry house. BLACK BOX is customizable for up to three pre-set warnings: alarm, alert and critical.

Add-on Sensor Capabilities
With the BLACK BOX modular design, you can add other sensors such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. Inside the BLACK BOX controller is the capability to initiate various pieces of equipment such as lighting, fans, and heating.
