How to tell if a gas detector is malfunctioning?
1. Display of error codes
See if the instrument displays an error code or fault indication that directly reflects the fault.
2. Inaccurate test
Use the standard test gas to test, the result is too large deviation from the standard value may be damaged.
3. Can not start normally
The detector can not start normally, the display does not light up, etc., may be a circuit failure.
4. Calibration failure
If the calibration of the gas detector cannot be completed according to the standard procedure, it is likely to be a malfunction.
5. No response
The detector is not responsive to different concentrations of gases, and the response reading is abnormal.
6. Unstable results
The result fluctuates greatly, the same sample is measured continuously but the readings are too different.
7. Damaged appearance
Check whether there is mechanical damage to the instrument shell, probe and display.
8. Probe connection failure
Determine whether the probe is connected abnormally, resulting in signal interruption.
Combined these indicators can determine whether the gas detector may be faulty, need to be sent for repair.
Combustible gas detector application scenarios
As the main source of energy in production and life, combustible gases can be found everywhere in industrial production and daily life. Common combustible gases are hydrogen, carbon monoxide, methane, propane, ethylene, hydrogen sulfide and so on ...... Moreover, many combustible gases are toxic and harmful gases themselves, like carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine and so on. These combustible gases may explode and cause fire accidents once they exceed a certain concentration, and their detection should be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.
