What industries do portable gas detectors work in?
There will be some poisonous and harmful gases in the air. At this time, in order to measure its concentration, you can use a gas detector to detect it. Because of the different types of instruments, there will be some differences in the application fields that they can use. The following is Let me introduce to you which fields the portable gas detector can be used in.
Application field of portable gas detector
1. Oil and gas:
Portable gas detectors can be used in oil, gas and other fields, because gas leakage may occur during the extraction, transportation, storage, and smelting of oil or gas. So it can be used as an early warning instrument.
2. Chemical place:
A large amount of toxic gases are usually produced in the field of chemical plants, so gas detection instruments must be used in chemical plants, which mainly detect general hydrocarbon gases and various toxic gases, such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonia and so on.
3. Hospital:
The medical waste gas produced in medical laboratories generally contains a lot of toxic gases. In order to ensure the safety of personnel, portable gas detectors can be used.
4. Tunnel and parking lot:
In some closed tunnels and parking lots, it is necessary to monitor the exhaust gas in the air. When the gas concentration endangers the safety of the human body, some measures can be taken in time.
5. Semiconductor production:
In the process of making semiconductors, phosphorus, arsenic, boron and gallium are generally used as additives, and hydrogen is used as a reactant to reduce some, which will cause many flammable and toxic gases to exist in the current environment. At this time, it is necessary to use Portable gas detector for detection.
6. Power station:
Generally, coal or oil is used as raw materials in the power station industry, so the role of portable gas detectors in power station applications is mainly to detect flammable gases such as natural gas, hydrogen, and toxic gases, such as CO and SO.
Precautions for the use of portable gas detectors
1. Before using the portable gas detector, read the instruction manual carefully, understand the performance and operation method of the instrument before using it;
2. In the process of using the instrument, you should always check whether there is any blockage in the air inlet. If there is blockage, it should be cleaned or replaced in time;
3. In the process of using the portable gas detector, try to avoid collisions, resulting in abnormal detection data;
4. The instrument is detected by a sensor, which is a precision component. In general, the adjusted instrument should not be opened casually, and attention should also be paid to prevent moisture and impurities from entering the instrument, resulting in abnormal data;
5. If the indicator light flashes continuously during the use of the instrument, the display cannot display the value normally, the current ambient gas is obviously exceeding the standard, when the instrument does not respond, and there is a large gap in the measurement data, it should stop running, and continue after the abnormality is eliminated in time use.
6. After the portable gas detector is turned off, the dust attached to the surface should be cleaned, and the equipment should be cleaned regularly;
7. If the instrument is not used for a long time, it should be turned off and stored in a dry, dust-free environment with a suitable temperature.
