Over in Colorado, ISC’s engineers have invented and patented a groundbreaking low-cost methane sensor for ‘on-earth’ use; it measures to 0.5 parts per million which is below the 1.8 ppm global average for atmospheric methane concentration. The sensor is portable, durable and does not require calibration. https://issuu.com/towndrowfidelis/docs/a5_brochure_singles
