What is the problem that the ammonia gas detector cannot work normally after installation?
Publication Date:2023/05/26 In many areas where ammonia may be generated, because various uncertain factors may lead to some dangers, we need to install an ammonia detector for 24 hours without interruption to detect the change of ammonia concentration in real time. However, after we installed the ammonia detector, many friends will encounter the situation that the ammonia detector cannot work normally. Do you know why the ammonia detector does not work properly after installation? The following is a brief introduction by yi yun Tian:

Ammonia detector does not work properly after installation, as follows:
1. Selecting the wrong device
If the gas to be detected in the place to be tested is methane, however, the carbon monoxide detector was installed by mistake. After installation, the instrument cannot work normally.
2. Installation is not standard
Ammonia detector needs to be installed in the vicinity where toxic, harmful or combustible gases are liable to leak, it is also necessary to avoid being adjacent to the exhaust fan during installation. If it is not installed correctly, the leaked combustible, toxic and harmful gases cannot fully diffuse to the vicinity of the ammonia gas detector, so that the leakage danger cannot be detected by the ammonia gas detector in time, and it will be mistaken for the instrument not working properly.
3. Detect environmental impact
, too complex and diverse. Meet the humid, water, irritating gas detection environment, the work of the ammonia detector is a great influence. Part of the gas detector in the room, the use of good conditions, long life, low failure rate. Part of the gas detectors are in the field, and the detectors work in the open air throughout the year. The air-conditioning flow, especially the salt-doped seawater flow directly passes through the combustible gas detector, and the resistivity change may cause errors.
4. Not properly maintained
In summary, it is the possible reason why the ammonia detector cannot work normally after installation. Only the correct installation method of the oxygen detector can better ensure the normal operation of the ammonia detector. Therefore, in the process of installing the ammonia detector, we must carefully watch the relevant installation instructions.
