How long is the service life of gas detectors us


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, Xiao Bian 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 inspection agency for inspection. If safety equipment is damaged or has been tested and determined to be inoperable, the company shall prohibit it. Use registration, scrap, replace with new equipment. The following editor will take gas detectors and gas detectors as examples to explain to you the service life of the most sensitive component in the gas detection category, the sensor, for your reference.


1. QB2000N/QB10N gas detector



A common gas detector sensor is an electrochemical sensor. The average service life of such sensors 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 after unpacking, the sensor must be tested after its service life or replaced with a new product. It is recommended that the company install and use the detector in time after receiving it. , The detector is calibrated every year to ensure the normal use of the equipment.




2. GC210 Portable Gas Detector




The 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 sensor life is stated in the specifications for gas detectors and gas alarms, sensor life depends on the environment in which it is used. Factors such as temperature, humidity, dust, etc. can 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.
