What are the differences between detecting and analyzing gases?

 

In life, we often integrate gas detectors and gas analyzers together. We think they are the same instrument and have the same function. In fact, our understanding is wrong. The detection purpose of a gas detector is mainly for safety protection, and the detection purpose of a gas analyzer is mainly to analyze the gas composition and content in the measured environment. In addition to these essential misunderstandings, the difference between a gas detector and a gas analyzer is also Which ones are there?


1. Different structures:
Gas detectors generally consist of gas detectors and signal conversion circuits, while analyzers not only have gas detectors and signal conversion circuits, but also a complete set of gas path analysis systems.


2. Different detection methods:
The detection method of gas detectors is often diffusion type, which can only be detected in the air. The gas analyzer takes the collected gas and then sucks it into the interior for inspection and analysis by lifting out the sampling tube.


3. The accuracy of data is different:
Gas detectors can only provide qualitative analysis results for specified gases. The gas analyzer is an unknown gas concentration, and through the analysis instrument, the gas type and concentration contained in the unknown gas are given.


4. The purpose of measurement is different
The detection purpose of gas detectors is mainly for safety protection. If the gas components in the detection environment are known, different gas detectors should be set up accordingly to achieve preventive detection. The detection purpose of the gas analyzer is mainly to detect the gas composition and content in the measured environment. The detection accuracy of the gas analyzer is higher than that of the gas detector.


5. Different operating methods to complete the entire measurement process
When using the gas detector, you only need to place the gas detector in the environment to be measured, and the instrument can display the value and complete the detection.


The gas analyzer must introduce gas into the instrument and strictly adjust the process technical conditions, such as temperature, pressure, flow, etc. Only when the operator adjusts the instrument until a stable chemical process is achieved can accurate measurement data be obtained.


Based on the above summary, the differences between gas detectors and gas analyzers have the above five points.
