System and method for assessing spectroscopic sensor accuracy

A method for assessing spectroscopic sensor accuracy, includes building an a priori simulation of generalized etalon drift. A spectroscopic sensor is tested to determine use parameters. A specific drift model is generated by applying the determined use parameters to the built a priori simulation of generalized etalon drift. The specific drift model is analyzed to determine whether the spectroscopic sensor is satisfactory.

Housing apparatus for sensitive gas sensor

A sensor housing apparatus includes a housing having an enclosure and outer assembly, at least one flow path extending through the housing, a gas sensor disposed in the enclosure and a thermal mass. The thermal mass is mounted within the enclosure in thermal communication with the gas sensor, and is configured to transfer thermal energy from the gas sensor to an ambient environment surrounding the housing and minimize temperature gradients adjacent the gas sensor.
