Tips: How to improve the service life of methane gas detector?
- The methane gas detector should be calibrated and tested regularly.
When replacing the probe of CH4 gas detector, in addition to a certain sensor activation time, the instrument must be recalibrated. In addition, before using the methane gas detector, use the standard gas for response detection to ensure protection of the instrument. - Pay attention to the interference between other sensors and the methane gas detector.
Although a composite gas detector can detect multiple gases at the same time, the fixed gas detector is not suitable for any combination of toxic and harmful gases. Generally speaking, each gas detector corresponds to a specific detection gas, but any gas detector cannot be absolutely effective. - Pay attention to the life of methane gas detector.
CH4 gas detector has a certain service life. Generally, in portable gas detectors, LEL sensors have a longer life span and can generally be used for about three years. The life of the photoionization detector is four years or longer. The lifetime of electrochemical specific gas detectors is relatively short, generally one to two years. The life span of the oxygen sensor is short, about a year or so.
