MetScan Nano 1F – Drone Methane Detection (TDLAS) for DJI Matrice 4D & Dock 3

Presentation

The MetScan Nano 1F is a compact drone methane detection and mapping system, using TDLAS (Tunable Diode Laser Spectroscopy) technology. Designed specifically for the DJI Matrice 4D/4TD and DJI Dock 3, it enables autonomous and repeatable leak detection missions.

Ideal for LDAR (Leak Detection and Repair) inspections of gas distribution networks, urban pipelines and biogas plants, it meets the requirements of the EU Methane Regulation and OGMP 2.0.

Key Benefits

• Dock 3 Autonomous Missions – Schedule Unmanned On-Site Detection Rounds
• Compact form factor – Optimized for the Matrice 4D/4TD payload
• TDLAS Technology – Selective Methane Measurement Without Cross-Interference
• AIRINS.ai Platform: Flight Data Visualization, Analysis, and Reporting

Drone compatibility

• DJI Matrice 4D/4TD – Direct E-Port Connection (Native)
• DJI Dock 3 – Autonomous Missions via Matrice 4D/4TD

Ultra & Standard Packages

Access to the AIRINS.ai platform

Access to the AIRINS.ai platform is included with the purchase of the system, for perpetual use:

• The purchase includes one year of warranty, support and software updates. After that, the hardware and software remain fully usable.
• As an alternative to purchase, a subscription plan is available for the Ultra package: it includes opening an AIRINS.ai account, a refundable security deposit, a quarterly fee with a set km allowance, and per-km billing beyond that allowance. Terms and pricing are available on request.
• Paid options: on-prem deployment, MQTT forwarding to third-party tools, webpage embedding and emission source quantification (Ultra package).

Warranty, calibration and service life

Warranty
Standard one-year warranty. The extension can only be purchased with the initial order, at 20% of the total product value per additional year, up to two years of extension. After the warranty period, the hardware and software remain fully usable.

Calibration
Units are factory-calibrated before shipment. Recalibration is recommended every 12 months in a stable operating environment. If working conditions change (temperature, measurement environment), some modules require their zero point to be readjusted. Two methods are available:

• By the customer. Injection of a calibration gas or comparison with the reference equipment of a measuring station. The new correction factor is calculated using the manufacturer’s formula, then saved in the calibration interface of the AIRINS.ai platform.
• By return to the factory, for annual inspection and calibration. Free of charge during the warranty period, with shipping costs borne by the customer. Outside the warranty, it is invoiced according to the inspection results, with costs communicated for prior approval.

Service life
3 years on average, depending on how often the unit is used and the concentration levels encountered. This lifetime is shorter with frequent use in heavily polluted areas.
