Description:

The sensor of methane and hydrocarbons with ultra low power represent the infrared sensor and designed to determine the concentration of flammable gases, primarily methane and other hydrocarbons.

The production of the IR sensors of methane and hydrocarbons is the technology NDIR. It is based on the use of semiconductor devices: LEDs and photodiodes operating in the spectral range 3000-4000 nm (in the infrared part of the spectrum). Created based on thin films of solid solutions of the system of PbSe – CdSe photodiodes is about 10 times more sensitive than pyroelectric photodetectors and, in contrast to the previously used photon photodetectors of other types have much higher stability, as temperature and long-term. The use of such technology has also helped greatly in 1000 times to reduce power consumption of the sensor.

Based on the IR sensors are created analyzers that are used to provide individual and industrial safety in the oil & gas industry (extraction, transportation and processing of oil and gas), coal industry (mines), energy (gas power plants), telecommunications (at maintenance of underground cable networks).

 

Advantages:

– compact size,

operates in a wide temperature range,

– resistance to aggressive gases

long service life,

– optical infrared sensor for methane hydrocarbons consumes 1,000 times less powerthan competitive sensors based on semiconductor, optical or thermochemical method. This means that devices using them can operate without recharging for more than 2 years, instead of several hours

low consumption of electricity (less than 100 microwatt) opens huge prospects for the development of state of the art instruments and solutions to detect and measure concentrations of combustible gases, including the creation from scratch of a new market of portable gas analyzers clips,

– intrinsically safe sensor. The sensors do not require the use of sintered filters as part of explosion-proof shell and protection against dirt and dust, possible with the use of filters, the replacement of which can be performed directly in the hazardous area

direct replacement catalytic bead sensors.
