Application of gas detector sensor
How a gas detector works. Gas detection systems are safety technology products, best used to protect workers' lives and ensure factory safety. Gas detection systems are designed to sense the concentration of hazardous gas vapors, trigger alarms and beam light signals -- and initiate responses before hazardous situations arise for employees, assets and the environment. They are an important tool ...

How does gas alarm work?
According to the type of gas, gas alarm can be divided into two types, namely combustible gas and toxic gas. According to the different use environment, it can be divided into two categories: household and industrial. The alarms used in different environmental locations also have different pertinence. There is also a portable gas detector for convenient detection of confined spaces or personnel ...

The math behind long-term dioxin sampling
Can I let you in on a secret? Your current method of measuring dioxins is probably not giving you the whole picture about your dioxin emissions. A typical waste incineration plant will run for about 8000 hours per year. Many waste incineration plants are still using the old method of periodic sampling. With periodic sampling, dioxins are only measured for 6-8 hours at a time. You don’t need ...

Test gases are used to calibrate SEWERIN`s gas leak detectors.
Test gases are used to calibrate SEWERIN's gas leak detectors. Like aerosols or spray tins of paint, they are categorised as a pressurised gas packaging according to UN 1950. These packagings are characterised by a maximum volume of one litre and a maximum pressure of 12 bar. As they comprise a "limited volume", there is no problem with sending them by mail. Designed to be disposable, ...

Animal Husbandry: The Best Sensors to Monitor Emissions
Stunning methods are used to cause unconsciousness in animals prior to slaughter. Ideally, stunning will leave an animal insensible to pain and distress during the slaughtering process, while causing minimal distress in itself. Of the available stunning methods, percussive or electrical methods are the most widely used1 but gas stunning may also offer an effective alternative compatible with ...

Hydrogen cylinders are a potential safety risk in the laboratory
Can a laboratory which uses hydrogen gas cylinders ever be considered safe? We look at some of the safety concerns of having hydrogen cylinders in the lab in light of recent tragic events and how a hydrogen generator is a safer solution for providing hydrogen for laboratory applications. In December 2018 a hydrogen cylinder used at the prestigious Indian Institute of Science (IISc) exploded. The ...

BUMP TESTING AMMONIA (NH3) SENSORS
Bump testing a gas sensor involves flowing a concentration of gas that is slightly higher than the Low alarm setpoint of the gas detector for a short period of time (1-2 minutes or less). The purpose of a bump test is to confirm that the sensor responds to the presence of gas, the low alarm will activate and the gas detector overall is operating appropriately. The bump test is used to confirm ...
