In this page you will find any additional information on gas detection such as the different sensor technologies, gas detector calibration and maintenance, calibration gas to calibrating and bump testing and any particular case and information on gas detection.
GAS DETECTION SENSOR TECHNOLOGY
One or several sensor technologies are available for each gas to ensure measurements accuracy. The 5 major gas detection sensor technologies are: catalytic, electrochemical, semiconductor, infrared absorption and photoionization lamp(PID sensor) sensors...See gas detection sensors
GAS DETECTOR MAINTENANCE & CALIBRATION
Regardless of the gas sensor type (catalytic, infrared, electrochemical, semiconductor or photoionization), it is essential to periodically control the proper operation of sensors with regular calibrations and bump tests…See gas detector maintenance
CALIBRATION GAS
In order to perform calibration, periodical checking and bump test of gas detectors or other devices (chromatograph, gas analyzer, breathalyzer, MAP…) we offer a wide range of calibration gas in disposable calibration gas cylinders that are compliant with the ISO6142 standard...See calibration gas
VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS DETECTION (VOC)
VOCs - volatile organic compounds - it a category that names a very large group of gases. VOCs include many pollutant, toxic or even carcinogenic substances. Because of their volatile nature, they easily spread into the atmosphere. It is thus highly recommended to monitor these substances...See VOC detection
FREON GAS - REFRIGERANT LEAK DETECTION SYSTEM
Halogenated hydrocarbons (CFC and HCFC groups), alkenes (HFO) and almost any refrigerant gas are regulated under specific standards that limit (or forbid) their use. These regulations also enforce requirements to implement a refrigerant gas detection system...See refrigerant gas detection
