Do you understand the inspection standards for gas detectors
Gas detectors can be used to detect gases produced in industrial applications, but their detection function is affected by usage time. In this case, it should be regularly inspected.
Gas detector inspection standards
1. Inspect appearance and other items
We can observe whether there are any problems with the gas detector during transportation or assembly by detecting its appearance. We can also inspect the appearance of the gas detector for defects, cracks, or damage, and check whether the overall structure of the instrument is complete. And it is necessary to check the machine model, label, manufacturer's name, factory time, and instruction manual of the gas detector to ensure consistency with the manufacturer's information. In addition, it is also necessary to check the explosion-proof label, measurement license label, and instrument number of the instrument. Before purchasing the instrument, the manufacturer can generally be required to provide them.
2. Power on inspection
The gas detector needs to be connected to a power supply during operation. Generally, the instrument is powered by a built-in battery. Before using the instrument, the switch can be turned on to check whether the power is normal. The gas detector can work by replacing the battery or equipping a charger. Gas detectors equipped with a charger need to test whether their charger can charge properly before use. When the instrument is in a powered state, It is possible to check whether the display screen of the gas detector is displaying normally.
3. Check if the sound and light alarm function of the instrument is normal
Some gas detectors have an audible and visual alarm function. Due to the use of battery power, when the battery is in an undervoltage display state, there should be a significant difference in the alarm signal emitted by the instrument under normal power supply.
