Which Gases Can a Multi-Gas Detector Detect?

Learn which gases are commonly detected by multi-gas detectors, including oxygen, CO, H₂S, and explosive gases for industrial safety.

Learn how fire dampers prevent the spread of fire and smoke in HVAC systems and ensure compliance with fire safety codes in buildings.

Sensor technologies in gas detectors such as electrochemical, catalytic bead, infrared, and semiconductor sensors.

Learn how Fire and Gas (F&G) Mapping can optimize detector placement and improve safety in the oil and gas industry.

The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) denotes the minimum gas concentration in the air necessary to ignite when exposed to a fire source.

A fire pump provides high-pressure water flow to fire sprinkler systems and fire hose standpipes in buildings or industries.

Fire and gas detectors often use a 3-wire system rather than a 2-wire system for better functionality and safety.

Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detectors (UGLD) are used to find the gas leak within the detector’s range. It measures in decibels (dB).

Many times, we encounter problems with these gas detectors and face issues in troubleshooting and practical solutions for them.

This article provides the general requirements for the design basis for fire detection alarm systems, and selections of detectors.
