Campbell Scientific’s IRGASON fully integrates the open-path analyzer and sonic anemometer. Designed specifically for eddy-covariance flux measurements, the patented design is easier to install and use than separate sensors and provides increased measurement accuracy. The IRGASON simultaneously measures absolute carbon dioxide and water vapor, air temperature, barometric pressure, three-dimensional wind speed, and sonic air temperature. U.S. patent D680455

Benefits and Features

  • Combined support structure causes less flow distortion than two separate sensors
  • Truly colocated gas analyzer and sonic anemometer measurements avoids flux loss due to sensor separation
  • Synchronized gas analyzer and sonic anemometer avoids the need to correct for time lag
  • Low power consumption
  • Low noise
  • Angled windows shed water and are less tolerant to window contamination
  • Field rugged
  • Field serviceable
  • Extensive set of diagnostic parameters
  • Fully compatible with Campbell Scientific dataloggers; field setup, configuration, and field zero and span can be accomplished directly from the datalogger
  • Sonic temperature: determined from three acoustic paths; corrected for crosswind effects
  • Rain: innovative signal processing and transducer wicks considerably improve performance of the anemometer during precipitation events
