Gas Sensors
Combustible Gas Sensors
A combustible gas is any gas that will burn. Mixtures of combustible gases with air, when ignited, produce an explosion. Use a combustible gas sensor or combustible gas detector to insure that the percentage of gas in the air can never get high enough for the mixture to burn. When gas is detected by the sensor or detector, try to replace the gas/air mixture with fresh air. If this happens, then shut down all equipment and evacuate all personnel from the area. Use these gas sensors or gas detectors to check for methane (natural gas), propane, butane, ethane, pentane, hexane, heptane, acetylene, LNG, LPG, hydrogen and other combustible gases.

Toxic Gas Sensors
A toxic gas is any gas that, when inhaled, will produce some adverse effect on the person or animal. Toxic gases in large concentrations can produce unconsciousness or death by displacing the oxygen in breathable air. Many toxic gases, even in very low concentrations breathed over a long time period can cause cancer or otherwise permanently damage the lungs. Toxic gas sensors insure that no personnel are injured or killed by toxic leak accidents. Use these sensors to check for H2S, SO2, CO, CO2, CL2, NO2, and other toxic gases.

Oxygen Sensors
The air we breathe is a mixture of many gases. Approximately 20.9% of the earth’s air is oxygen. Air that is “deficient” of oxygen is a threat to life, leading to unconsciousness and death. In industrial locations where nitrogen or other inert gases are in use, a gas leak could go undetected, and the resulting displacement of oxygen from the air would result in death. Use an oxygen depletion sensor to alert personnel of an oxygen deficiency in the air.
In areas where pure oxygen is in use, an oxygen leak is equally dangerous. As the percentage of oxygen in air increases above the normal 20.9%, the air is said to be “enriched”. Oxygen enrichment causes a fire to burn more readily than normal, causing many materials to burn with almost explosive force. Use an oxygen enrichment sensor to alert personnel of the existence of extreme fire danger within their environment.
