How long is the lifespan of the gas detector?

How long is the lifespan of the gas detector?


1. Regularly calibrate the gas detector. Generally, after one and a half years of use, the accuracy will decrease, and it must be returned to the factory for recalibration. Do not try to save trouble and damage the sensor.

2. The longest service life of a gas detector is 5 years. This does not mean that all gas detectors can reach 5 years. This is only possible when the gas environment is relatively mild and the daily maintenance is in place. Five years, and after the service life, it must be replaced with a new detector.


3. Most of the sensors used by gas detectors to detect the concentration of combustible gases are catalytic combustion sensors, and their service life is 3-5 years under ideal conditions. In addition, the life of the gas detector (including fixed gas alarm and portable gas alarm) sensor has a great relationship with the concentration it is exposed to.


4. The service life of the electrochemical gas detector is generally about 2 years. After 2 years, the performance of the instrument needs to be tested to determine whether the detector needs to be replaced. In addition to the necessary sensor aging, the detector also needs to be calibrated. The instrument needs to be calibrated with the corresponding standard gas.


The service life of the gas detector is not certain, which has a lot to do with the equipment use environment. During the use period, the gas alarm must be regularly checked for maintenance and calibration. Once there is a problem, it is necessary to contact the technical personnel or the manufacturer in time. If If the sensor fails, the sensor needs to be replaced in time to avoid a safety accident.
