Mission focus

A flexible sensing toolkit for work beyond the bench.

Research programmes benefit from modular instruments, complementary methods and accessible data. Different questions may require spectroscopy, gas sensing, particle measurement or long-term environmental observation in the same study.

HT-Nova platforms support method development, field campaigns, teaching and integration into larger experimental systems. Researchers can place analytical capability closer to the sample, collect complementary measurements and retain data for comparison as the method evolves.

Multi-method analysis

Combine spectroscopy, gas sensing and particle measurements. Complementary observations can reveal relationships that a single sensing principle would not show.

Field flexibility

Move analytical capability closer to the sample and event. Portable and mobile formats support field campaigns, rapid sampling decisions and measurements under realistic conditions.

System integration

Use modules and connected outputs in custom research systems. Accessible data and configurable hardware make it easier to test a method within a broader experimental platform.

Operational sequence

Field workflow

A clear sequence connects early indication, field confirmation and a defensible decision - giving every team a shared understanding of what happens next.

Configure

Select the sensing method and form factor for the study. Sampling rate, deployment environment and integration requirements shape the initial configuration.

Acquire

Collect complementary measurements in the lab or field. Consistent time, location and method information keeps datasets useful when conditions or instruments change.

Interpret

Compare spectra and trends to develop the next question. Findings can inform method refinement, a new field campaign or integration into a larger research system.

Selected solutions

The right tools for the task.

BC500

BC500 is a portable, all-weather biological aerosol sampler that collects and concentrates airborne particles such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores. It takes a snapshot of the environment at preset intervals or on demand, producing samples suitable for PCR and other laboratory analysis.

CS810

CS810 is a chemical substance analyzer that identifies unknown solids, liquids and powders in the field, combining advanced optical sensing with a cloud-connected software system. Results return in seconds with no sample preparation, consumables or reagents, and an interchangeable module architecture adapts the instrument to the sample in front of it.

RM1200

A rugged, wide-range X-ray and gamma radiation detection module for unmanned, mobile, vehicle-mounted and fixed monitoring systems. RM1200 measures ambient dose rate and accumulated dose, responds in as little as 2 seconds at higher dose rates, and maintains an overload alarm beyond its measurement range.

BM3001

BM3001 is a compact biological aerosol detector that continuously monitors airborne biological factors - bacteria, spores, viruses and toxins - in indoor and outdoor environments, and alarms when concentrations exceed a set threshold. Detection is based on Mie scattering and UV-LIF, with alarm sensitivity reaching less than 3 ACPLA.

Key information

Reference Application Scenarios

Real-time Monitoring

Laboratory analysis and sample identification: HT-Nova's analytical instruments, including Raman spectroscopy, gas chromatography and ion mobility spectrometry modules, can be used directly in laboratory settings for rapid identification, quantitative analysis and verification of chemical and biological targets. Many of these instruments and detection modules are designed for laboratory use, so they extend a traditional analytical workflow rather than replacing it, and bring analysis closer to the sample.

Safety and Compliance

Laboratory safety management: deploying toxic gas, combustible gas and radiation monitoring equipment allows a laboratory to automate risk monitoring and alarm response, reducing the hazards present in a research environment.

Data standardization and traceability: measurements are retained in a consistent form, so results can be compared across a study and traced back to the conditions they were taken in.
