    Title: What else should I consider?

    Type: Text Slide

    Content:
    • Sensor/Detector Response Time
      • Determines how sensor/detector will respond to changes in concentration
        • Long time constant
          • slow response
          • may take a long time to indicate actual concentration
        • Short time constant
          • fast response
          • unit may overshoot (or undershoot) actual concentration
