A fixed multi gas detector is a permanently installed device that continuously monitors multiple gases in industrial environments. It is typically used in oil refineries, chemical plants, and manufacturing facilities to detect combustible gases, toxic gases, and oxygen levels. By connecting to PLCs, DCS, or alarm systems, it ensures automatic safety responses when gas concentrations exceed safe limits.
Most fixed multi gas detectors can measure a combination of:
Combustible gases (LEL)
Toxic gases such as H₂S, CO
Oxygen (O₂)
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) depending on sensor configuration
Customizable sensor modules allow operators to adapt the system to specific industrial requirements.
High-quality industrial fixed gas detectors offer:
Accuracy: ±3% F.S.
Repeatability: ±1% F.S.
Long-term drift: ≤±1% per year
Equipped with Honeywell or City imported sensors, these detectors provide stable and reliable performance even in harsh environments, ensuring accurate monitoring for critical safety applications.
Yes. Modern fixed multi gas detection systems are designed for easy integration. They provide multiple signal outputs including:
