Our Company

SpectraSensors, Inc is the leading global provider of laser-based analyzers used by world-class natural gas and petrochemical companies to ensure the highest levels of process efficiency with reliable measurements and low cost of operation. The company’s products are designed specifically to improve process efficiency in refineries and chemical plants. Process efficiency is a highly critical yet often overlooked means of reducing environmental impacts from energy and chemical production. Improved process efficiency enables lower maintenance costs, more accurate measurements, faster response times and more economic value with fewer materials and waste.

 

 

 

Using tunable diode laser (TDL) technology that has been proven in the harshest real-world environments, SpectraSensors’ solutions successfully measure and monitor gas and petrochemical concentrations in a variety of applications such as environmental, energy, water, and chemical process monitoring. Recent advancements in semiconductor lasers have made spectroscopy economically viable for a host of commercial applications. SpectraSensors uses highly scientific resources to deliver cost-effective, robust measurement tools to our customers.  

SpectraSensors’ products provide unprecedented reliability and speed and require virtually no maintenance. Products include moisture (H2O) sensors for atmospheric measurement, moisture and carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements in natural gas. Custom configurations are available for the measurement of other compounds such as CH4, C2H2, NH3, HCl, H2S, CO, NO and more. 

 

SpectraSensors possesses a highly-skilled management team with decades of relevant industry experience, including deep expertise in lasers, optics, process efficiency, and applications and systems design for the gas and petrochemical industries. The team has a proven track record in using optical technologies, including laser absorption spectroscopy, a chemical sensing technique that emphasizes precision, fast response, and immunity to corrosive or contaminating elements in the sensing environment. More than half of SpectraSensors’ executive team holds degrees in science and technology, including eight renowned PhD scientists.

 

Since the company’s formation in 1999, SpectraSensors has focused on developing and selling commercial products adapted from the NASA/Caltech Jet Propulsion Laboratory and perfected via proprietary R&D efforts. Today, SpectraSensors remains 100% focused on the development of process analyzer solutions for the industrial process and environmental monitoring markets with a singular vision to help customers bring cleaner, better fuels to market faster.

The Company’s Gas Analyzers measure Moisture (H2O), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S), Hydrogen Chloride (HCl), Methane (CH4), Ammonia (NH3) Ethylene Oxide (ETO) and more.

 

SpectraSensors sells its products through a global distribution network and installation base that spans North America, Europe and Asia, including the Pacific Rim and Australia. Its headquarters are in Houston, TX, with engineering, design and manufacturing operations located in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.
