2. Leak detection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

   Optimal detection distance varies and is influenced by camera lens size, resolution, field of view, thermal detection range and sensitivity, leak size, and other factors. The system's layers of filters and immunity to environmental elements, such as snow, ice, rain, fog and glare, contribute to false alarms reduction.

3. Nondispersive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondispersive_infrared_sensor

   A nondispersive infrared sensor (or NDIR sensor) is a simple spectroscopic sensor often used as a gas detector.It is non-dispersive in the fact that no dispersive element (e.g a prism or diffraction grating as is often present in other spectrometers) is used to separate out (like a monochromator) the broadband light into a narrow spectrum suitable for gas sensing.

4. Infrared open-path detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_open-path_detector

   An open path detector usually costs more than a single point detector, so there is little incentive for applications that play to a point detector's strengths: where the point detector can be placed at the known location of the highest gas concentration, and a relatively slow response is acceptable. The open path detector excels in outdoor ...

5. Gas detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_detector

   A gas detector can sound an alarm to operators in the area where the leak is occurring, giving them the opportunity to leave. This type of device is important because there are many gases that can be harmful to organic life, such as humans or animals. Gas detectors can be used to detect combustible, flammable and toxic gases, and oxygen depletion.

6. Infrared detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_detector

   An infrared detector is a detector that reacts to infrared (IR) radiation. The two main types of detectors are thermal and photonic (photodetectors). The thermal effects of the incident IR radiation can be followed through many temperature dependent phenomena. [2] Bolometers and microbolometers are based on changes in resistance.

7. Tracer-gas leak testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer-gas_leak_testing

   A tracer-gas leak testing method is a nondestructive testing method that detects gas leaks.A variety of methods with different sensitivities exist. Tracer-gas leak testing is used in the petrochemical industry, the automotive industry, the construction industry [1] and in the manufacture of semiconductors, among other uses.
