How to choose the right gas detector?
Publication Date:2022/03/22 When we buy any product, we need to understand it first and place an order only after it is determined that it is appropriate. The gas detector is no exception. After all, gas detectors can be widely used in petrochemical, environmental protection, metallurgy, coal mining, pharmaceutical and other industries, and for these different application sites and testing requirements will be different, therefore, choose the right gas detector for safety and health personnel is a top priority. So do you know how to select the right gas detector ? The following is a brief introduction by yi yun Tian:

To select a suitable gas detector, please refer to the following aspects:
1. According to the type of gas to be detected.
the key component of the gas detector lies in the gas sensor. different gas sensors can detect different gas types. for example, the combustion gas detector can only detect combustible gas, but it is not applicable for detecting VOC gas.
2, according to the required functions.
Now there are many additional functions of gas detection instruments, such as alarm, waterproof, dustproof, explosion-proof, reaction time, preheating time, etc., which should be selected according to actual needs.
3. Determine whether a portable gas detector or a fixed gas detector is required.
Portable gas detector is also called hand-held gas detector, which can be carried with you to detect the gas environment around you anytime and anywhere.A fixed gas detector is an instrument that is fixed in a 1 area and is used to monitor the gas environment in the area in real time.
4. According to the required site safety conditions
under normal circumstances, there are mandatory requirements such as explosion-proof on the site where the gas detector is installed and used. The coal, petroleum and chemical industries are very strict with explosion-proof requirements, requiring their own explosion-proof instruments with explosion-proof certification. Other environments may require gas detectors to have environmental certification or metering appliance license and other qualifications.
5. Check production qualification .
At present, due to the rapid development of the gas detector market and the uneven product quality, inferior products often lead to personnel and property losses at critical moments. It is recommended that you choose regular channels to buy gas detectors.
6. Choose a reliable brand.
due to the huge price difference caused by the different quality of the key component of the gas detector, that is, the gas sensor, many small brands of self-assembled products do not meet the standards and have great risks in use. it is recommended that you choose gas detector products produced by regular manufacturers like yi yun tian.
To sum up, we can see that if you want to choose the right gas detector, you can refer to the gas type, required Function, detector type, production qualification, brand manufacturer, etc. Although the gas detector is widely used in industrial production and can eliminate most safety risks, it does not fully guarantee the safety of construction. Therefore, we should establish a sound safety prevention mechanism during construction.
