Hi there,

I would just like to know if one of the sensors available with the EVM will detect hydrocarbons?

Thanks

Hi Yolandie,
TI don't sell the sensors and unfortunately there is no sensor identified for Methane. You will have to find one electrochemical sensor for these gases on other sites, search engines?.

In order to find the sensors/ gases that are already suggested, please look at the LMP91000 Webench designer tool.
This tool will generate the schematics and the register configuration for the LMP91000. You can also enter the parameters for your sensor of preference once you find it.

Please click on the link below and Webench link will be in the right portion of the page.

Hi Jose,

Could you possibly give me some suggestions as to the best place to look for robust sensors that would be used on LNG plants? Or even just sensors that would be compatible with the module.

Thanks,
Yolandie

Did you try the LMP91000 Webench designer tool? That is good starting point and the only one TI recommends.

Jose
