    Abstract: [Objective] An object is to provide a method and apparatus for controlling a multi-gas sensor which can measure NO x concentration and ammonia concentration by use of a single gas sensor and can improve accuracy in measurement of ammonia concentration. [Means for Solution] A method for controlling a multi-gas sensor (200A) including an NO x sensor section (30A), and an ammonia sensor section (42) having at least paired electrodes (42a) and formed on an outer surface of the NO x sensor section. The NO x sensor section includes a first pumping cell (2) extending between the interior and exterior of a first measurement chamber (S1) and adapted to pump out or pump in oxygen of a gas under measurement introduced into the first measurement chamber, and a second pumping cell (4) extending between the interior and exterior of an NO x measurement chamber (S2) communicating with the first measurement chamber and configured such that a second pumping current (Ip2) flows between the paired second electrodes, the second pumping current corresponding to an NO x concentration of the gas under measurement. An oxygen concentration is calculated on the basis of a first pumping current flowing through the first pumping cell, and a corrected ammonia concentration is calculated on the basis of the oxygen concentration and the ammonia concentration output of the ammonia sensor section.

    Abstract: The present invention is a spectroscopic analyzer that when measuring the concentration of a predetermined component contained in sample gas in a reduced pressure state lower than atmospheric pressure, obtains the concentration of the predetermined component with accuracy. The spectroscopic analyzer is one that measures the absorbance of the predetermined component contained in the sample gas in a reduced pressure state lower than atmospheric pressure, and calculates the concentration of the predetermined component with use of a calibration curve indicating the relationship between the absorbance of the predetermined component and the concentration of the predetermined component and a relational expression between the pressure of the sample gas at the time of the measurement and the concentration of the predetermined component. In addition, in a graph with one axis as pressure axis and the other axis as concentration axis, the relational expression has an intersection point other than zero with the pressure axis.

    Abstract: An object is to perform accurate diagnosis of a failure in which an input signal from an amplification circuit assumes an anomalous value in an intermediate range between GND and Vcc. When at least one of a first NO x concentration Ip2W based on the output OP1 of a first differential amplification circuit 210 and a second NO x concentration Ip2N based on the output OP2 of a second differential amplification circuit 220 falls within an anomaly diagnosis range ZN, the difference D between the first NO x concentration Ip2W and the second NO x concentration Ip2N is obtained, and the difference D is stored in a difference accumulation buffer BF such that 16 values of the difference D continuously sampled up to the present are stored. The integrated value (difference integral value) Dint of the difference D is obtained. When the difference integrated value Dint becomes equal to or greater than a predetermined value Di0, a diagnosis result of "anomalous" is provided.

    Abstract: Described are systems and methods for compensating long term sensitivity drift of catalytic type electrochemical gas sensors used in systems for delivering therapeutic nitric oxide (NO) gas to a patient by compensating for drift that may be specific to the sensors atypical use in systems for delivering therapeutic nitric oxide gas to a patient. In at least some instances, the long term sensitivity drift of catalytic type electrochemical gas sensors can be addressed using calibration schedules, which can factor in the absolute change in set dose of NO being delivered to the patient that can drive one or more baseline calibrations. The calibration schedules can be used reduce the amount of times the sensor goes offline. Systems and methods described may factor in in actions occurring at the delivery system and/or aspects of the surrounding environment, prior to performing a baseline calibration, and may postpone the calibration and/or rejected using the sensor's output for the calibration.
