Hazardous Gas Sensors Protect the Safety of the Chemical Industry
The HAZARDOUS GAS SENSORS are primarily used to detect toxic gases commonly found in the chemical industry. In different scenarios, toxic and hazardous gases mainly generate from raw material reactions, solvent evaporation, leaks, and incomplete combustion of fuels. They can be categorized by toxicity level as follows:
First, highly toxic gases: Most dangerous, inhalation of even small amounts can be fatal.
Common gases: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), chlorine (Cl2), etc.
Common scenarios: Wastewater treatment plants, desulfurization towers, pesticide production lines, etc.
Countermeasures: Hazardous gas sensors based on electrochemical principles.
Second, highly toxic gases: Long-term exposure or short-term exposure to high concentrations can also lead to serious harm.
Common gases: Carbon monoxide (CO), ammonia (NH3), formaldehyde (CH2O), hydrogen fluoride (HF), etc.
Common scenarios: Boiler rooms, nitrogen fertilizer plants, paint workshops, etc.. Precautions against carbon monoxide, formaldehyde are also necessary in daily life.
Countermeasures: Electrochemical Series-4 hazardous gas sensors
Third, toxic gases: Primarily irritating and corrosive; long-term exposure can lead to chronic damage.
Common gases: Sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOₓ), hydrogen chloride (HCl), etc.
Common scenarios: Sulfuric acid plants, boiler exhaust, metallurgical workshops, pickling workshops, etc.
Countermeasures: Electrochemical principle hazardous gas sensor
Fourth, flammable, explosive and toxic gases: possessing both explosion risk and toxicity.
Common gases: Methane (CH4), ethylene (C2H4), methanol (CH3OH), etc.
Common scenarios: Natural gas storage tanks, plastic factories, methanol storage tanks, etc.
Countermeasures: Infrared methane sensors, electrochemical gas sensors.
Fifth, volatile organic compounds (VOCs): Mostly toxic and carcinogenic.
Common gases: Benzene (C6H6), styrene (C8H8), acetone (CH3COCH3), etc.
Common scenarios: Painting workshops, solvent storage areas, fine chemical synthesis workshops, etc.
Countermeasures: PID photoionization sensors.
Production safety in the chemical industry cannot be ignored. In addition to the hazardous gas sensors, products of Sangbay can also be used in other fields. For more product information, please feel free to contact us!
