Gasera builds compact gas‑analysis instruments that use cantilever‑enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy to detect trace gases at sub‑ppb to ppt levels without consumable reagents. The handheld, battery‑operated devices provide real‑time, multi‑gas measurements with interchangeable laser modules and cloud‑connected data logging for environmental, industrial and research applications. Their OEM‑ready photoacoustic engine also enables integration into third‑party monitoring systems.

Problem
Accurate detection of trace gases such as formaldehyde, methane, nitrous oxide, and hazardous industrial compounds requires laboratory‑grade equipment, consumable reagents, and skilled operators, which limits real‑time monitoring and increases operational costs for air‑quality, emissions, and research applications. Existing technologies often lack the sensitivity (sub‑ppb/ppt) and portability needed for continuous field deployment.
Solution
Gasera delivers compact gas‑analysis instruments based on cantilever‑enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS). The PAS platform converts absorbed optical energy into acoustic signals, providing ultra‑low detection limits without the need for consumable reagents. Gasera’s product line—including the GASERA ONE series, OEM modules, and accessories—offers real‑time, multi‑gas measurements with parts‑per‑trillion (ppt) sensitivity for key pollutants. Instruments operate autonomously, support remote data logging and cloud connectivity, and can be configured with interchangeable laser sources to target specific gases. This enables continuous, on‑site monitoring for regulatory compliance, process control, and scientific research while reducing laboratory overhead.
Target Audience
Primary customers are environmental monitoring agencies, industrial emission control teams, automotive and aerospace testing facilities, indoor‑air‑quality managers, and research laboratories requiring high‑precision trace‑gas analysis.
Features
- Cantilever‑enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy delivering sub‑ppb to ppt detection limits for gases such as formaldehyde, HF, CH₄, N₂O, benzene, and others.
- Handheld, battery‑operated analyzers with no consumables or external pumps, allowing deployment in indoor, outdoor, and harsh industrial environments.
- Multi‑gas capability through interchangeable laser modules and optical filters, supporting simultaneous detection of VOCs, greenhouse gases, and hazardous industrial compounds.
- Integrated data acquisition, on‑board processing, and secure cloud API for real‑time reporting, trend analysis, and remote diagnostics.
- Multipoint sampling module (up to 12 inlets) for distributed monitoring from a single analyzer.
- OEM‑ready photoacoustic engine that can be embedded in third‑party instruments for custom applications (e.g., transformer condition monitoring, waste anesthetic gas detection).
- Rugged enclosure and environmental sealing to withstand high humidity, dust, and corrosive gases typical of emission testing and livestock facilities.
