How long does the gas detector have a useful life?
With the emphasis on safety production, industrial enterprises, especially chemical enterprises, have become more sophisticated and skilled in the equipment and use of safety equipment and facilities. However, the editor reminds everyone that any equipment and facilities have a service life. Once the safe service life is exceeded, it should be stopped in time and handed over to the testing agency for testing. If safety equipment is broken or tested and determined to be unusable, the company shall prohibit it. Use registration, end-of-life, and replacement of new equipment. The following editor will take gas detectors and gas detectors as examples to explain to you the most sensitive component in the gas detection category - the service life of the sensor, for your reference.
1. QB2000N/QB10N gas detector
Common gas detector sensors are electrochemical sensors. The average service life of this type of sensor is two years, and the service life of the sensor will be shortened in special environments such as severe pollution, high or low temperature, and high or low humidity. Special reminder, after the electrochemical sensor is unpacked, the sensor has begun to wear. Even if the company does not use it out of the box, the sensor must be tested or replaced with a new product after its service life. It is recommended that our company install and use the detector in time after receiving it. , Calibrate the detector every year to ensure the normal use of the equipment.
2. GC210 Portable Gas Detector
GC210 portable gas detector is a common gas detector on the market. The service life of the sensor assembled by the detector is generally two years, and the service life will be shortened in special environments such as heavy pollution; and the service life of the electronic components of the detector is generally longer.
Although the specifications of gas detectors and gas alarms have stated the service life of the sensor, the service life of the sensor depends on the environment in which it is used. Temperature, humidity, dust and other factors will reduce the service life and sensitivity of the sensor. Therefore, the sensor must be tested and calibrated at any time, and if it fails, please replace it with a new one in time.
