A gas detector is a tool used to detect the presence of certain gases in an environment.
The function of a gas detector is to detect the presence and measure the concentration of certain gases in the air. This tool is very important for the safety of workers and the environment in various industries, especially those that have the potential to have a risk of hazardous gas leaks. If the gas concentration exceeds the safe threshold, the gas detector will provide a warning to help prevent accidents due to hazardous gas leaks, such as fires, explosions, and poisoning.
gas detectors are divided into 2, namely:
Single Gas Detector: This tool is designed to detect only one type of gas, such as oxygen (O2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), or flammable gas (LEL).
Multi Gas Detector: This tool is able to detect several types of gas at once, usually consisting of a combination of gases commonly found in industrial environments, such as O2, CO, H2S, and LEL.
Based on the use of gas detectors are divided into three types, namely: Portable Gas Detectors, Fixed Gas Detectors, and Transportable Gas Detectors
