What is the difference between ammonia gas detector detecting explosion and leakage?
Publication Date:2022/06/23Ammonia poisoning is mainly found in the production, transportation, storage and use of ammonia, such as damage to pipes, valves, storage tanks, leakage and leakage. Rare in the accidental administration of ammonia. Therefore, the ammonia detector can be configured in the ammonia use site to monitor the ammonia content on site in real time to ensure the personal safety of the operators. In the use of ammonia gas detector, there is a leak test and explosion test, what is the difference between the two? Next, Yi Yuntian Xiaobian will introduce this problem in detail.
The difference between leakage and explosion detection by ammonia gas detector:
1. Detection range
However, the detection principle of ammonia gas for explosion detection is usually catalytic combustion type, if the measuring range is 0-100% LEL, that is, to prevent more gas leakage from causing gas explosion; Second, if ammonia gas leakage is detected, the detection unit is ppm, usually 0-100ppm.
2, detection principle
it means to prevent gas leakage from causing poisoning. Therefore, electrochemistry, which is usually used in principle to measure toxic type, is characterized by more sensitivity, more accuracy and better effect. The meaning of explosion measurement is obviously to measure the lower limit of explosion, that is, combustible gas, to avoid preventing explosion accidents.
the above-mentioned differences between leakage detection and explosion detection of ammonia gas detector are shared here. ammonia gas detector is widely used in the industrial field, and different types can be selected according to industrial needs.With the ammonia gas detector in the industry, the leakage of ammonia gas can be found in a short time, and protective measures should be taken in time to prevent poisoning accidents of operators.
