2. Gas detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_detector

   A typical calibration schedule for a portable gas detector is a daily "bump test" accompanied by a monthly calibration. [17] Almost every portable gas detector requires a specific calibration gas In the US, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) may set minimum standards for periodic recalibration.

3. Photoionization detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoionization_detector

   The photoionization detector is an efficient and inexpensive detector for many gas and vapor analytes. PIDs produce instantaneous readings, operate continuously, and are commonly used as detectors for gas chromatography or as hand-held portable instruments. Hand-held, battery-operated versions are widely used in military, industrial, and ...

4. Gaseous detection device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaseous_detection_device

   The gaseous detection device (GDD) is a method and apparatus for the detection of signals in the gaseous environment of an environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) and all scanned beam type of instruments that allow a minimum gas pressure for the detector to operate.

5. Hydrogen sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sensor

   A hydrogen sensor is a gas detector that detects the presence of hydrogen. They contain micro-fabricated point-contact hydrogen sensors and are used to locate hydrogen leaks. They are considered low-cost, compact, durable, and easy to maintain as compared to conventional gas detecting instruments. [1]

6. Carbon dioxide sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide_sensor

   The key components are an infrared source, a light tube, an interference (wavelength) filter, and an infrared detector. The gas is pumped or diffuses into the light tube, and the electronics measure the absorption of the characteristic wavelength of light. NDIR sensors are most often used for measuring carbon dioxide.

7. Ionization chamber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionization_chamber

   Plot of ion current against voltage for a conceptual wire cylinder gaseous radiation detector. Ion chambers use the lowest voltage plateau. A gas ionization chamber measures the charge from the number of ion pairs created within a gas caused by incident radiation. It consists of a gas-filled chamber with two electrodes; known as anode and ...
