Mouser Electronics has inked a global distribution agreement with Amphenol SGX Sensortech, adding robust environmental sensors to its sensor linecard. The Amphenol SGX Sensortech product line includes four series of gas sensors. The MiCS-VZ-89TE indoor air quality sensor combines state-of-the-art MOS sensor technology with intelligent detection algorithms to monitor total volatile organic compounds (tVOCs) and CO₂ equivalent variations in confined spaces, such as rooms or vehicle cabins.

The Integrated IR (INIR) devices are user-friendly digital gas sensors that use the latest SGX Sensortech infrared (IR) technology.

The triple-range sensors, available for sensing either CO₂ or methane gas, provide temperature-compensated data through both digital and analogue outputs.

The IR gas sensors are available in three series: IR1xxx/IR2xxx, IRx5TT, and IR600. IR1xxx and IR2xxx devices are compact, low-power, robust gas diffusion sensors that use proven Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) methods for detecting CO₂ and many hydrocarbon gases in hazardous environments and mining applications.

The VQ Series combustible gas sensors (or pellistors) are available in catalytic — that is, detecting combustible gases in concentrations that are approaching the explosive range — and thermal conductivity — detecting gasses with lower weight than that of air, such as hydrogen and helium — options.

Engineers can choose from metric, 0.5in., and 0.75in. head units that detect a range of gasses, including CO₂, ammonia, broad hydrocarbons, and high hydrocarbons. Other options include poison resistance, low voltage, and shock resistance.
