What are the specifications for the installation of combustible gas detectors?
Publication Date:2021/06/18In gas, petroleum, chemical, coal safety and other industries, combustible gas is one of the most common gases, and it is also a frequently used gas. According to the regulations of the national fire department, combustible gas detectors should be installed in places where combustible gas is used or where there is leakage of combustible gas. In places where it is inconvenient to install combustible gas detectors, employees should be equipped with portable combustible gas detectors to ensure safe production and prevent fire or explosion accidents. So what are the specifications for the installation of combustible gas detectors? The following staff of Yi Yun Tian will explain to you.

& nbsp;
installation specification of combustible gas detector :
& nbsp;
1. when the gas source is gas with relative density less than 1 and the vertical distance from the release source to the ceiling exceeds 4m, a gas collecting hood or a stratification detector shall be set, because the building is too high, if there is no gas collecting hood or layered combustible gas detector, more combustible gas detectors need to be installed in too large space.
& nbsp;
2. the effective horizontal plane radius of combustible gas detector should be 7.5 meters indoors and 15 meters outdoors.Within the effective coverage area, a detector may be provided.
& nbsp;
3. if the release source of combustible gas lighter than air is in a closed or semi-closed plant, a detector should be set above the release source, and a detector should also be set at the highest point in the plant where combustible gas is easy to accumulate.
& nbsp;
4. the place where combustible gas detector or toxic gas detection alarm should be set up should be fixed. when there is no condition to set up fixed type, portable combustible gas detector should be equipped.
& nbsp;
the installation specification of combustible gas detector will be shared here first. these are only some general installation specification points. the specific installation specification depends on your environment and gas. you can consult the staff of yiyuntian gas detector manufacturer, who should have some experience.
