Baku, Azerbaijan, Dec. 7
By Huseyn Valiyev – Trend:
Scientists with the High Tech Research Center of Azerbaijan demonstrated an improved version of carbon monoxide detector at the 23rd Azerbaijan International Exhibition of Telecommunication and Information Technologies (Bakutel 2017), the Center told Trend.
The new device, which is an improved version of the previously developed semiconductor detector, can measure the levels of not only carbon monoxide, but also other heavy gases.
“The market value of the device will be 35 manats. For comparison, a foreign analogue will cost $30-35, which is about twice as expensive as the local product.”
“The device is based on our know-how,” added the High Tech Research Center. “We managed to achieve its low price by skipping some components that lead to higher prices.”
Previously, the Center said the CO detector can be manufactured in Azerbaijan with a permission of relevant authorities.
