Multi Gas Detector – What is it?
A multi gas detector can come in many shapes, sizes and sensor configurations, which can cause some confusion with first time buyers. A multi gas detector is a portable device detect multiple gases simultaneously. A portable gas detector is usually the last line of defence to alerting operators of dangerous gas leaks. The most common sensor configuration for a 4 in 1 gas detector is carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide, flammable (infrared or pellistor) and oxygen found in the JXCT. This configuration is commonly use for confine space entry.
However, a multi gas detector is not limited to this standard configuration, our gas detector can have up to 5 sensors, which can be customised with any sensor configuration using its up to 30 sensors. One example sensor configuration is the JXCT gas sensor is Oxygen and CO2, use for industries such as beverage and medical. VOC sensors may be need in conjunction with other sensors, such as flam, in applications. This is due to these being particularly harsh environments with multiple gas hazards that are dangerous to people and plant.

As mentioned, if you are working in a confined space then the JXCT gas detector will most likely fit your requirements. Most of the standard of four gas monitor, can order online. If you need to customize the sensor configuration, you may need to discuss it with the manufacturer.

Features:
Versatile Protection: Choose from detectors designed for specific scenarios, from construction sites (carbon monoxide, oxygen levels) to home use (natural gas leaks, carbon dioxide).
Early Warning System: Audible and visual alarms instantly alert you to dangerous gas concentrations, giving you precious time to evacuate or take action.
Data at Your Fingertips: Some models offer convenient data logging and connectivity, allowing you to track gas levels over time and create safety reports.
Built to Last: Rugged and durable, these devices are withstand even the harshest environments.
Peace of mind, redefined: Whether you’re a professional safeguarding your team or a family ensuring their well-being, the multi gas detector offers an invaluable layer of protection. Invest in your safety and breathe easy knowing you’re equipped to handle whatever the air throws your way.
Application:
The multi gas detectors are used in gas storage leakage monitoring, drug factory, food factory, hospital gas disinfection residue detection, electrostatic precipitator, gas generator, air purifier, gas leakage.
If you have multiple gas hazards onsite and require a multi gas detector, then you need to make sure that the detector can have the mix of sensors required for your application. In addition you need to check if there are any cross interfering gases that could potentially cause false/incorrect alarms. If in doubt always seek advise the manufacturer. Ask for test data and certificates and discuss your application in detail. Most manufacturers will help with specifying the correct monitor and will provide training.If you can’t reach the manufacturer, make sure the dealer is trained.
