• Professor Chong-Ook Park manufactured a new devide called “gas mixer” which is minimal and simple version of gasentest I & II. This equipment is cheaper than gasentest equipment. It cannot automatically collect the data from the sensor but offers automatic gas supplying and concentration calculation system. Thus, it will be the better option to select this for whom needs just automatic gas supplying system. The device can control gas concentration, humidity and flow rate. This will be really helpful for those who study gas sensors. The details about the equipment can be shown in website (psskorea.com).
