Why the migration from UV/IR to 3IR Flame Detection in Oil & Gas Facilities?
Curious as to why multi-spectrum IR flame detectors were developed and rapidly adopted as the optimal choice, replacing UV/IR flame detection in oil and gas facilities? Read on friends! Those with deep…
How to Design an Effective and Future-proof Gas Detection System
“How many detectors do I need?” and “Where should I locate them?” are two frequently asked questions about designing a gas monitoring system — and probably two of the most…
Developments in Gas Detection Technology Enhance Worker Safety
One of the greatest hazards affecting the health and safety of industrial workers is toxic, flammable and explosive gasses. As Safety + Health magazine reported, concern over worker exposure to toxic…
Methods of Protection in Hazardous (Explosion Risk) Locations: Containment, Segregation and Prevention (with Intrinsic Safety)
In order to reduce the risk of explosion, elimination of one or more of the components of the ignition triangle is necessary. There are three basic methods of protection—explosion containment,…
Protecting Ethylene Facilities: A Review of Gas Detection Methods
Introduction Few gases match the broad use of ethylene in modern society. Ethylene is a starting material for the industrial synthesis of linear polymers, aldehydes, and a whole host of…
