An ultraviolet absorption spectroscopy device using light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) as the light source was constructed. The measurement cell, light source, and transmitting and receiving optics were installed on a breadboard measuring 30 × 30 cm. A measurement optical path length of 1 m was made possible by multireflection optics. The device can mount two LEDs in tandem, and the transmitted light is coupled to an optical fiber, which is connected to a compact spectrometer. Two LEDs with center wavelengths of 280 and 295 nm were used to provide an emission spectrum which covered the peak region of the absorption spectrum of SO 2 . Experiments confirmed the linearity of the absorption coefficient measured by the device for SO 2 concentrations in the range of 16 to 800 ppm. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
