How many meters is the distance between the ammonia detector and the release source?
Publication Date:2023/04/21 I believe that everyone is very clear that the concentration of ammonia is too high, which will cause great harm to the human body. Once there is ammonia leakage, it will lead to poisoning of the field staff, and even death in severe cases. At the same time, ammonia leakage will also cause air pollution. By installing an ammonia detector, we can help us monitor the concentration of ammonia in the air in real time and find out whether there is a leak in time. However, when we install the ammonia detector, there are requirements for the distance of the release source. Do you know how far the ammonia detector is from the release source? The following is a brief introduction by yi yun Tian:

ammonia detector distance from release source:
1. In general, when toxic gas is slightly lighter than air, the detector of ammonia gas detector should be installed above the release source. When toxic gas is slightly heavier than air, the detector should be installed below the release source.
2. the gas release source is located in the equipment area arranged in the open air or semi-open air. when the detection point is located on the windward side of the low frequency wind direction of the release source, the distance between the probe of the ammonia detector and the release source should not be greater than 2m.
3. when the detection (detection) point of the ammonia gas detector is located on the downwind side of the low frequency wind direction of the release source, the distance between the probe and the release source should be less than 1m. The toxic gas release source is located in the closed or semi-closed plant, and the distance between the ammonia detector probe and the release source should not be greater than 1m.
In summary, the distance between the ammonia detector and the release source.When the ammonia gas detector detects that the gas concentration reaches the alarm value, it will send out sound and light alarm signals to remind people to take safety measures such as evacuation, forced exhaust, shut down equipment, etc. to prevent poisoning accidents and ensure safe production. Therefore, we can choose the appropriate distance ammonia detector according to different industrial needs.
