  • Publication number: 20240393309
    Abstract: An arrangement includes a gas measuring device (100) and an expansion module (20, 21). A process configures the gas measuring device. The gas measuring device includes a base part (1), a gas sensor, an evaluation unit and a reader (17). The gas sensor measures a detection variable that correlates with the concentration of a target gas. The evaluation unit determines the target gas concentration based on a detection variable measured value. The expansion module is detachably connectable to the base part and has an identifier stored in a data memory (19, 24) of the expansion module. With the expansion module connected to the base part, the reader reads the data memory without contacting the expansion module. Depending on a signal from the reader, the gas measuring device determines whether the expansion module is connected to the base part or not and if connected triggers a procedure.

  • Publication number: 20220141230
    Abstract: A measuring system (500), a communication component (200; 300a; 300b; 300c; 600; 700), a device (20), a process (10) and computer program of a communication component (200; 300a; 300b; 300c; 600; 700) of a measuring system (500) are provided. The measuring system (500) includes an additional communication component (200; 300a; 300b; 300c; 600; 700). The process (10) for the communication component (200; 300a; 300b, 300c; 600; 700) of the measuring system (500) includes management (11) of at least one personalized user with access rights in the measuring system (500) and storage (12) of access data for the at least one personalized user. Synchronization (13) of the access data of the at least one personalized user with the one or more additional communication components (200; 300a; 300b; 300c; 600; 700) is provided.

  • Patent number: 10746712
    Abstract: A process for operating a gas sensor (10), which process includes a calibration of the gas sensor (10). A test gas (16) is drawn in via a pump (12) coupled with the gas sensor (10), whereby the test gas (16) is supplied to the gas sensor (10). Different volume flows are generated by the pump (12) and respective volume flow-dependent measured values (26) are detected by the pump (12). The volume flow-dependent measured values (26) are recorded together with the respective volume flow. A sensor control unit and a computer program functioning as a control program (48) are provided to implement the process.
