Abstract: The technical scheme of a remote laser analyser of vapours of hazardous and toxic substances based on two IR sources (a tunable ¹³C¹⁶O₂ isotope laser and a quantum cascade laser) is described. The developed optical scheme of the analyser, which is identical for both sources, makes it possible to fabricate a rather compact device. The use of two channels considerably extends the application field of the gas analyser. The possibility of using the gas analyser in stationary and mobile variants is provided.

Keywords: remote probing, laser gas analyser, IR spectroscopy, absorption spectroscopy.
