Norwegian Institute for Air Research
With a 40 year history and over 250 projects annually NILU has firmly established itself as a leading research institute in the area of air quality. A relentless focus on research has enabled NILU to become an acknowledged authority in all aspects of air quality. NILU projects range from indoor air quality monitoring through atmospheric research, with the primary research focus being the study of local air, as it pertains to industry and urban areas. Not only has NILU developed the methodologies, models and software analysis technologies for these areas of research, but it actively develops custom sensor solutions as well. This is done when there is no suitable commercial product available in the market, or when what is available simply doesn’t satisfy NILU's exacting standards. Many of these new sensor technologies are commercialized through NILU Innovation AS, a wholly owned subsidiary of NILU and a holding company for NILU’s other subsidiaries.
Atmospheric Profiling Radiometers
Radiometrics Corporation designs, develops and manufactures microwave radiometers for atmospheric remote sensing. The Radiometrics MP-3000A Microwave Profiler is a rugged hyper-spectral radiometer that delivers continuous temperature, humidity and liquid profiles that are essential for accurate short-term weather forecasting. Using proprietary technology to ensure optimum performance in a highly portable package, the radiometer design has been proven during millions of hours of worldwide operations. Patented frequency agility, state-of-the-art component technology, modular design and proprietary Rain Effect Mitigation ensure optimum, cost-effective operations at any location in nearly all weather conditions. The MP-3000A is free from electromagnetic or acoustic emissions and operates reliably during high winds and precipitation. It is the instrument of choice wherever continuous upper air thermodynamic soundings are needed for improved short-term weather and dispersion forecasting.
