Abstract
A non-dispersive infrared gas sensor with a light concentration unit is provided to improve the accuracy of a device by detecting a small amount of gas by maximally concentrating lights using a light concentration unit. A non-dispersive infrared gas sensor with a light concentration unit includes an optical cavity(20) and a reflecting mirror(11). The reflecting mirror has a main reflecting mirror(21) in a shape of a parabola, a sub-reflecting mirror(31) in a shape of parabola, and a parabolic mirror(22). The sub-reflecting mirror is formed on one end portion of the main reflecting mirror in a long axis direction as one body. The parabolic mirror is formed on the other end side as one body to encompass a light source(12). The light source is formed on a focus of the parabolic mirror. An optical barrel(33) is formed on the other end of the main reflecting mirror.
