What gases can combustible gas detectors detect
Generally, combustible gas detectors can detect combustible gases, such as hydrogen, methane, ethane, propane, butane, nonane, methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethylene, ethyl acetate, toluene, xylene, acetone, butanone, vinyl chloride, liquefied gas, natural gas, acetylene, acrylonitrile, methane, cyclohexane, propylene, dimethylamine, acetic acid, formaldehyde, diesel, gasoline, acetic acid, ethanol, solvent oil, epoxy ethane Combustible gases such as dimethyl sulfate, sulfur hexafluoride, methyl ether, isobutane, dimethyl ether, turpentine, oil and gas, paints, gases, benzyl alcohol, dichlorotoluene, methyl acetate, methyl acetate, etc.
Combustible gas detectors are widely used in various fields, such as petrochemical, industrial production, smelting and forging, power, coal mines, tunnel engineering, environmental monitoring, sewage treatment, biopharmaceutical, household environmental protection, animal husbandry, greenhouse cultivation, warehousing and logistics, brewing and fermentation, agricultural production and fire protection, gas, construction, municipal enterprises, school laboratories, research centers, and other places.
The detection principle varies depending on the gas being detected:
1. Catalytic combustion principle: combustible gases such as methane, hydrogen, etc;
2. Electrochemical principles: such as oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, ammonia, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, nitrogen oxides, hydrogen fluoride, chlorine, etc;
3. Infrared principle: carbon dioxide, methane, bromomethane, oil and gas, etc;
4. PID photoionization principle: VOC, TVOC, benzene, xylene, etc;
5. Thermal conductivity principle: see examples such as fluorine gas, nitrous oxide, sulfur hexafluoride, etc
6. Non dispersive infrared (dual beam) NDIR (dual beam) principle: such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, etc
7. Other gas detection principles on the market include laser detection, ultraviolet principle, VOC, and FID detection principle.
