Natural gas is flammable, however, it is not easy to ignite. Natural gas has a flammability range of approximately 5 to 15 % which means that any mixture containing less than 5 per cent or greater than 15% natural gas to air would not combust.Continue Reading
Crude oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons that formed from the remains of animals and plants (diatoms) that lived millions of years ago in a marine environment.Continue Reading
Greenhouse gas is any gas that can absorb infrared radiation (net heat energy) emitted from Earth’s surface and reradiate it back to Earth’s surface, thus contributing to the greenhouse effect.Continue Reading
Smoke and gas sensors will detect the gas particles produced during a fire and turns the electricity supply on to trigger fire alarm sounds.Continue Reading
An electrochemical or EC sensor measures the concentration of gas by oxidizing or reducing the gas and the electrode is used to measure the resulting electrical current output. These types of sensors are used for detecting oxygen and toxic gases. A catalytic, Cat EX or combustible sensor oxidizes a combustible gas and converts the temperatures...Continue Reading
A 5-gas meter gives you the flexibility of one additional sensor or possible a PID (Photo Ionizing Detector) in addition to monitoring oxygen levels, flammability of the atmosphere and common toxic substances, such as Carbon Monoxide or Hydrogen Sulfide.Continue Reading
