Abstract
Gas analysis apparatus particularly applicable to the quantitative monitoring of individual gas components in automotive exhausts, and providing this function in a rapid-response and hand-held, low power consumption format, comprises an array of electrically responsive solid-state sensors to which the mixture of automotive gases to be analyzed is simultaneously fed. Monitoring the electrical response of the sensors enables a substantially instantaneous determination of the quantitative presence of individual components of the gas mixture.
