  2. 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.

  3. Calor Gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calor_Gas

    The 1950s saw the introduction of the Flavel B500 cooker, which used Calor gas; it became a great success story with caravan owners and smaller households. [3] 1956 saw the birth of Calor's industrial division and installation of the first "bulk propane" tank at the Meredith & Drew biscuit factory in Newmarket. [3] In 1963 Calor Ltd. was formed.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Explosive gas leak detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explosive_gas_leak_detector

    A detector for propane is best placed down low near the floor, as propane is heavier than air. [3] A detector for natural gas (city gas) is best placed up high, near the ceiling. [3] Some detectors can detect both natural gas or propane, but this requires a compromise location. [4]

  6. Liquefied petroleum gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_petroleum_gas

    LPG is composed mainly of propane and butane, while natural gas is composed of the lighter methane and ethane. LPG, vaporised and at atmospheric pressure, has a higher calorific value (46 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 12.8 kWh/m 3 ) than natural gas (methane) (38 MJ/m 3 equivalent to 10.6 kWh/m 3 ), which means that LPG cannot simply be substituted for ...

  7. 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.
