What is the use of explosion-proof gas detector?

What is the use of explosion-proof gas detector?

1. to prevent the instrument itself from generating sparks leading to an explosion, with explosion-proof attributes of the gas detector, its internal circuitry and structural design can prevent the generation of sparks, to avoid the ignition of combustible gases. 2. to work properly in explosive environments.

2. can work normally in explosive environments, explosion-proof gas detectors can maintain normal operation in the presence of flammable and explosive gases.

3. more accurate and reliable detection results, explosion-proof gas detector is not easy to be damaged by the impact of external explosions, can continue to accurately detection.

4. to protect the safety of the operator, the use of explosion-proof instruments, can reduce the potential hazards to the operator.

5. Expand the scope of application of the instrument, with explosion-proof properties, the gas detector can be applied to more places where there is an explosion hazard.

6. Reduce the cost of use, do not need to add additional explosion-proof facilities, reduce the cost of use.

Therefore, explosion-proof gas detector is an important gas detection equipment in explosive hazardous environments.

The following places need to use explosion-proof coefficient higher gas detector: 

1. petrochemical enterprises, oil refining, petrochemical and other production systems exist in a large number of combustible gases, the need to use explosion-proof gas detector.

2. natural gas production and storage system, due to the existence of a large number of methane, propane and other combustible gases, the need to choose explosion-proof detector.

3. storage tank area, filling station, storage and transportation of flammable liquids and gases, need to use explosion-proof coefficient high detector.

4. gas storage space, gas station, the presence of certain flammable gases in the container and station, the need for explosion-proof level.

5. gasoline filling station, gasoline volatile gasification, the station needs explosion-proof coefficient of high gas detector.

6. combustible dust operation workshop, such as pulverized coal, flour workshop, etc. There is a dust explosion hazard, need high explosion-proof factor detector.

7. the oil tank area of ships and oil tankers, there is the danger of combustible gas gathering, and need to use explosion-proof detector.

8 mines, tunnels and other parts of the place, there is a certain risk of methane gas accumulation, the need to use explosion-proof models.

The use of explosion-proof gas detector, need to pay attention to the following matters.

1. Read the product manual carefully to understand the specific explosion-proof level and the use of methods.

2. Check that the terminals are intact and that the power supply cable is of explosion-proof type.

3. Make sure that the product marking is complete and there is no obvious mechanical damage to the housing. 

4. connect the gas inlet pipeline, note that the connector should be sealed with explosion-proof type. 

5. Make sure the power supply voltage is normal and the grounding wire is reliable. Avoid generating static sparks.

6. Warm up the product and let the sensor reach the working condition. Check the display, alarm module is normal.

7. In flammable and explosive environments, it is forbidden to open the instrument for internal operation. 

8 Avoid contact with high temperature surfaces, open flames, or direct heating from heat sources. 

9. If the display is abnormal, turn off the power immediately and investigate the cause of the malfunction. 

10. turn off the machine and disconnect the power in time after use, and store it properly.

According to the regulations of the correct use, is to ensure the use of explosion-proof gas detector is the key to safety.
