What is the reason for the gas detector not working properly?
1. Choose the wrong equipment
If the gas to be detected in the site to be tested is methane, but a carbon monoxide detector is installed by mistake, the instrument cannot work normally after installation.
2. Detection of environmental impact
The on-site testing environment is complex and diverse. Meeting the detection environment with humidity, water, irritating gas, etc. will have a great impact on the work of the gas detector. Some gas detectors are indoors, with good service conditions, long life and low failure rate. Some gas detectors are in the field, and the detectors work in open places all year round. The air-conditioning flow, especially the salt-doped seawater flow directly passes through the combustible gas detector, and the resistivity change of the platinum chamber may cause errors.
3. Not properly maintained
Gas detectors require regular maintenance and calibration. Because it is unavoidable for various polluting gases and dust in the environment to enter the detector, if the working environment of the gas detector is harsh, poor maintenance will lead to errors or failure of the gas detector during the detection process. Therefore, regular maintenance and calibration of the gas detector is an important task to prevent the instrument from malfunctioning. If the service life of the gas detector exceeds the service life, it needs to be replaced in time.
4. The installation is not standardized
The gas detector needs to be installed near a place where toxic, harmful or combustible gas is easy to leak, and it needs to avoid being adjacent to the exhaust fan during installation.
If you want to use the gas detector normally, you need to pay attention to the above four aspects. In addition, be careful not to drop or drop the gas detector on the ground during installation.
