2. Catalytic bead sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_bead_sensor

   Passing combustible gas raises the temperature further which increases the resistance of the platinum coil in the catalysed bead, leading to an imbalance of the bridge. This output change is linear, for most gases, up to and beyond 100% LEL , response time is a few seconds to detect alarm levels (around 20% LEL), [ 1 ] at least 12% oxygen by ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosimeter

   The device, also called a combustible gas detector, operates on the principle of resistance proportional to heat—a wire is heated, and a sample of the gas is introduced to the hot wire. Combustible gases burn in the presence of the hot wire, thus increasing the resistance and disturbing a Wheatstone bridge, which gives the reading.

   More robust sensors for use in high risk environments may have solid steel housing with a gas port of sintered metal granules. [2] Both of these work in a manner similar to the Davy safety lamp ; gas may percolate through the permeable mesh, but the passages are too long and narrow to support the propagation of a flame.
