Molecular property spectrometer sensor technology used for gas leak detection

1 min read

NevadaNano Systems, a specialist in gas detection sensor technology, has announced a significant investment in EMEA, with new operations in the UK and a distribution partnership with UNITRONIC.

“NevadaNano’s gas leak detection technology has the potential to save lives and create healthier environments better than any legacy technology,” said newly appointed Gary Collins, general manager, EMEA for NevadaNano Systems. The company will be operating out of Chester in the UK.

NevadaNano’s patented Molecular Property Spectrometer (MPS) is currently the only technology available that measures and classifies a wide range of combustible gases and reports the potential to cause harm virtually instantaneously.

It is the first new gas sensing technology to emerge in more than three decades and helps businesses create safer work, home and industrial environments.

NevadaNano is focused on commercial applications, specifically, monitoring for flammable gas, new refrigerant leaks, methane leaks and indoor air quality. All of these applications are often tied together as part of IoT-enabled distributed gas sensing systems. The company technology is used in a diverse array of commercial and government applications by its system integrator partners and manufacturers.

MPS was developed at the University of Nevada, Reno, and supported by DARPA, the DOD, and the Department of Homeland Security. NevadaNano holds exclusive licenses for 43 inventions and 24 patents for on-chip chemical analysis technology.

The agreement with UNITRONIC will see it represent NevadaNano in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
