Abstract
A gas analyzer includes an oxidation device and a subsequent photometer, wherein the oxidation device has a reaction chamber located in an exhaust gas path and a heating chamber downstream thereof, where an ultraviolet light source generates ozone from residual oxygen content of the exhaust gas within the reaction chamber to convert nitrogen monoxide into nitrogen dioxide in the exhaust gas, nitrogen oxides and excess ozone are broken down into nitrogen dioxide and oxygen in the heating chamber, the photometer outputs the measured nitrogen dioxide concentration as nitrogen oxide concentration of the untreated exhaust gas, and where an additional photometer is located in the exhaust gas path between the reaction chamber and the heating chamber which, via light absorption, measures the ozone concentration in the partially treated exhaust gas and outputs the same as oxygen concentration of the untreated exhaust gas.
