FAQ
1 Why do MIPEX optical gas sensors have such low power consumption?
Traditional optical sensors typically use miniature incandescent lamps as a radiation source, which are relatively inefficient. The MIPEX sensors use LED-based infrared sources, operating in an ultra-short pulse mode, which achieve significantly higher efficiency in converting electrical current into infrared radiation within the required spectral range. In addition, the sensors feature an optimised optical path, a high-sensitivity photodetector (up to 10× more sensitive than traditional pyroelectric detectors), advanced signal processing algorithms, and other proprietary technologies that enable ultra-low power consumption without compromising measurement performance.
2 How does moisture affect the performance of a MIPEX optical gas sensor?
The MIPEX sensor uses an optical design and spectral analysis method that minimises the effects of condensation on gas measurements. Like all optical sensors, MIPEX are sensitive to water — including condensation and droplets — which may lead to temporary signal drift and inaccurate readings until the moisture fully evaporates from the optical surfaces.
3 What happens to the sensor during sudden temperature changes?
The MIPEX optical gas sensor is equipped with an integrated temperature compensation system. During abrupt temperature fluctuations, individual components of the sensor may respond at different rates, which can temporarily disrupt compensation accuracy. In such cases, the sensor will indicate a status alert showing a rapid temperature change, with a potential for temporary measurement inaccuracy.
When a temperature shift occurs in a high-humidity environment, condensation may form on the optical surfaces, resulting in temporary signal drift. This condition typically resolves once the condensation has fully evaporated.

4 How does gas pressure affect the readings of the MIPEX optical gas sensor?
The sensor measures gas concentration based on partial pressure, meaning its readings are directly proportional to the total ambient pressure. For example, if the sensor reads 2.0% vol. at 1.0 atm, the same gas mixture at 1.1 atm will read 2.2% vol.
5 Is it necessary to calibrate the MIPEX optical gas sensor after it has been installed in the equipment?
Yes. MIPEX sensor calibration includes two steps: zero adjustment and span (scale) adjustment. Calibration is required during the initial integration of the sensor into a gas detection device, and also prior to system-level calibration of the equipment.
5 When should a zero adjustment be carried out?
Yes. MIPEX sensor calibration includes two steps: zero adjustment and span (scale) adjustment. Calibration is required during the initial integration of the sensor into a gas detection device, and also prior to system-level calibration of the equipment.
