2. 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.

3. 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.

4. Leak detection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leak_detection

   The primary purpose of leak detection systems (LDS) is to help pipeline controllers to detect and localize leaks. LDS provide alarms and display other related data to the pipeline controllers to assist decision-making. Pipeline leak detection systems can also enhance productivity and system reliability thanks to reduced downtime and inspection ...

5. 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 ...

6. Helium mass spectrometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_mass_spectrometer

   Helium mass spectrometer leak detectors are used in production line industries such as refrigeration and air conditioning, automotive parts, carbonated beverage containers food packages and aerosol packaging, as well as in the manufacture of steam products, gas bottles, fire extinguishers, tire valves, and numerous other products including all ...

7. Thermal conductivity detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity_detector

   The thermal conductivity detector (TCD), also known as a katharometer, is a bulk property detector and a chemical specific detector commonly used in gas chromatography. [1] This detector senses changes in the thermal conductivity of the column eluent and compares it to a reference flow of carrier gas. Since most compounds have a thermal ...
