[0030] Example: Ambient air passes through a particulate filter and enters the heater of a preprocessor. The heater temperature is higher than the ambient temperature. The preheated gas to be measured enters the heated gas absorption cell of the analyzer. After being absorbed by the ultraviolet beam, it enters the gas sampling pump through a flow metering unit and is finally discharged into the atmosphere.

[0031] The ultraviolet light emitted by the ultraviolet light source module is introduced into the heated gas absorption cell via optical fiber. After the light beam is absorbed by indole and 3-methylindole, the resulting ultraviolet light is then introduced into the spectrometer via optical fiber. The spectral signal is converted and transmitted to the single-board computer main control board. The single-board computer analyzes the absorption spectrum to obtain the gas concentrations of indole and 3-methylindole.
