What is ammonia and what is the function of an ammonia gas detector?

 

1. What is ammonia?
The chemical formula of ammonia is NH3, which is a colorless gas with a strong pungent odor. Liquid ammonia is often used as a refrigerant. It can also be used to make ammonia, nitrogen fertilizers (urea, ammonium bicarbonate, etc.), compound fertilizers, nitric acid, ammonium salts, soda ash, etc. Ammonia can also be used as biofuel to provide energy. Therefore, ammonia gas usually appears in chemical industry, light industry, fertilizer, pharmaceutical and other industrial environments.


2. What are the dangers of ammonia?
Because ammonia is a highly irritating gas, its strong irritation is often a key indicator of rising concentrations of harmful gases. However, frequent exposure to ammonia leaks can also fatigue the sense of smell, leading to low concentrations. Ammonia gas is difficult to detect, so inhalation of ammonia gas is the main way to cause poisoning.


3. How functional is the ammonia concentration detector?
The ammonia gas detector is an electronic instrument used to detect ammonia concentration in the environment. It adopts imported principle electrochemical sensors, supports multi-gas and multi-range detection, intelligent temperature and zero point compensation algorithm, switching output; 4-20MA, RS485 A variety of signal outputs are convenient for customers to access PLC, DCS, DDC and other industrial control systems, and can also be used as stand-alone control; ammonia gas alarms are used in various types of cold storage rooms, laboratories with ammonia, ammonia storage warehouses, etc. Applied to industrial sites with ammonia, it can effectively prevent poisoning and explosion accidents and ensure the safety of life and property. It is widely used in metallurgy, power plants, chemical industries, mines, tunnels, tunnels, underground pipelines and other places to effectively monitor and prevent ammonia in real time. The occurrence of gas leakage accidents.
