Abstract: A gas mixing device for a NOx detector includes a 3/2 way gas valve having a diaphragm, a first inlet port, a second inlet port, and an exit port. A gas conduit connects the exit port to a gas mixing chamber. A controller controls the diaphragm to alternate between a first position and a second position. The first inlet port may receive a sample gas and the second inlet port may receive ozone gas. In the first position of the diaphragm, a bolus of sample gas enters the conduit, and in the second position of the diaphragm, a bolus of ozone enters the conduit. The alternating boluses of sample gas and ozone mix within the conduit and within the mixing chamber. A NOx detection instrument includes the gas mixing device, an ozone gas source, and an NO2 sensor in fluid communication with the mixing chamber.
