Product Overview

Overview

NevadaNano provides ESG solutions with advanced multi-gas sensing products and continuous IOT monitoring systems that detect harmful gases, and quantify and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

The Nevadanano MPS™ Gas Sensor is designed for multi-gas detection in a variety of environments. This sensor family includes the MPS Flammable Gas Sensor, MPS Methane Gas Sensor, and the MPS A2L Refrigerants Gas Sensor.

Nevadanano presents this sensor as an innovative solution in the market for gas detection, with the claim that it represents the first significant technology shift for flammable methane gas detection in over 40 years. The company also offers a hardware-enabled SaaS solution, MethaneTrack™, which is focused on quantifying methane emissions.

Technology Innovations

MPS Gas Sensor, employs Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) structures in their products to detect, identify, and quantify chemicals in the air.

Operating principle:

  • Transducer is a micro-machined membrane with an embedded Joule heater and resistance thermometer.
  • MEMS transducer is mounted on a PCB within a rugged enclosure open to ambient air.
  • Measurements of the thermodynamic properties of the air/gas mixture
  • Sensor data are processed by patent-pending algorithms to report accurate concentration and classify the flammable gas

Nevadanano's MPS Gas Sensor is designed to have an extended lifetime, with an average lifespan of over five years.

Applications

The device operates with a typical power requirement of 29 mW, which is relatively low for this category of product. It is designed to accurately measure the concentration of 12 different flammable and combustible gases, providing versatile applications. Additionally, it aims to deliver real-time gas detection, resulting in very good response time.
