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

Infrared CO2 detectors can be used to detect carbon dioxide and a range of other combustible gases.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

Yes, there is a detector for methane gas. Infrared or catalytic gas detectors can be used to detect methane gas.Continue Reading

The four main types of gas detectors are electrochemical sensors, catalytic sensors, infrared sensors and photoionization sensors.Continue Reading

There are four main types of gas detectors, namely electrochemical sensors, catalytic sensors, infrared sensors and photoionization sensors.Continue Reading

It is important to mount the gas detection heads in areas that are most likely to first be exposed to a gas leak, or that are most representative of the gas levels in the area being monitored.Continue Reading

Gas detectors are categorized by the type of gas they detect: combustible or toxic. They are then further defined by the technology they use: catalytic and infrared sensors detect combustible gases and electrochemical and metal oxide semiconductor technologies generally detect toxic gases.Continue Reading

A fire and gas detection system warn people when smoke, fire, carbon monoxide, and other flammable and toxic gases are detected.Continue Reading

An automatic fire alarm system detects a fire in its early stages (activated by occupants of the building or by the transmission of fire alarm signals to an alarm-receiving centre), notifies the building occupants that there is a fire emergency and reports the emergency to the first responders.Continue Reading
