MPS™ S4 Gas Sensor Evaluation Kit
The MPS™ S4 Gas Sensor Evaluation Kit provides everything needed to quickly test and integrate NevadaNano’s advanced gas sensing technology. Includes sensor interface software, evaluation PCB, gas delivery mask, tubing, and USB cable.
The MPS™ S4 Gas Sensor Evaluation Kit is a complete, plug-and-play solution for evaluating the performance of NevadaNano’s Molecular Property Spectrometer™ (MPS™) gas sensing technology. Designed for engineers, researchers, and product developers, this evaluation unit enables easy integration, testing, and analysis of MPS sensor data.
Features
- Compact and powerful MPS™ S4 Sensor (20.0 mm Ø x 16.6 mm)
- Integrated environmental sensor, microprocessor, and supporting electronics
USB-enabled evaluation board for seamless PC communication
- Optional breakout harness for direct signal access
- Quarter-turn plastic gas mask with sealed headspace for accurate gas delivery
Included in Evaluation Kit
- MPS™ S4 Sensor
- MPS™ Sensor Interface Software and Drivers
- Evaluation PCB with protective housing
- Gas delivery mask with integrated barbs
- USB A-to-micro-B cable
- 1/4” Tygon tubing (McMaster-Carr: 6516T17)
- Optional micro USB plug
Fast Setup and Reliable Testing:
With its user-friendly design, the evaluation kit enables fast setup and controlled testing in lab or development environments. The sealed gas delivery system ensures precise exposure to target gases, allowing for consistent data collection and performance analysis.
The MPS™ 3.0 Flammable Gas Sensor comes in two different formats: The S4 (3-pin and 5-pin options) and the Mini. The S4 is intrinsically safe for certified applications, and the cost-effective Mini targets a variety of applications. Sensor readings are output on either a UART digital bus that provides gas classification or analog output for pellistor replacement with improved performance.
