What is the difference between combustible and toxic gas detectors?
Combustible gas detector, is a combustible gas detector is a detector that responds to the concentration of a single or multiple combustible gases. Combustible gas detectors are available in catalytic and infrared optical types. When the combustible gas enters the detector, it causes an oxidation reaction (flameless combustion) on the surface of the platinum wire, and the heat it generates raises the temperature of the platinum wire, which then changes its resistivity.
Toxic gas detector can be used to detect the concentration of toxic gases in real time in the petroleum, chemical and pharmaceutical fields to ensure the safety of workers! Toxic gas detector for the production of non-interference "intelligent" detector, the detector can detect the type of toxic gases and the breadth of the detection range in the industry are second to none.
Combustible gas detector and toxic gas detector are industrial places often use the equipment, many people do not know the difference between the two, the next article to tell you about it:
1, the detection of gas
Combustible gas detector mainly detects flammable gases, and methane as the standard to detect the concentration of flammable gases. According to the user to use different combustible gases in different places, according to its main gas as the standard detection of gas concentration to set.
Toxic gas detector is required to know the specific detection of which one or more gases, you can choose a separate toxic gas detection alarm, you can also choose a composite toxic gas detector, depending on the use of toxic gases in the place of use is the need to detect a single, or a variety of gases need to be detected.
2, the gas sensor
Combustible gas detector using catalytic combustion gas sensors, while the toxic gas detector using electrochemical sensors or infrared sensors or PID sensors, etc. Different, the detection of gas concentration content per unit are not the same, the specific need for a series of formulas for conversion.
