Abstract: An arrangement for measuring gas concentrations in a gas absorption method, wherein the arrangement includes a plurality of light sources, a measuring cell, at least one measuring receiver and an evaluation apparatus. The measuring cell has a narrow, longitudinally-extended beam path with an entrance-side opening diameter B and an absorption length L with L>B, wherein the measuring cell has a gas inlet and a gas outlet wherein a plurality of light sources of different wavelength spectra is grouped into a first light source group wherein an optical homogeniser is interposed between the first light source group and the measuring cell, wherein, in particular, the homogeniser is coupled to the light source group directly or via a common optical assembly.
Abstract: A method of referencing in optical absorption spectroscopy using broadband light sources for determining the concentration of substances in gaseous or fluid media through and to a device for measuring the concentration of substances in gaseous or fluid media within the measurement path of a measurement cell using absorption spectroscopy of light emitted from broadband light sources via light guiding optics.
