Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gas detection instruments, in particular to an infrared methane detection alarm. Background Art

[0002] Traditionally, catalytic combustion sensors and infrared methane sensors have been used primarily for methane detection. However, these sensors face significant challenges and limitations in practical applications. Because the gas detection element of catalytic combustion sensors requires direct contact with the gas being detected, they are susceptible to interference from environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and the presence of chemicals, all of which can affect the sensor's accuracy and reliability.

[0003] Therefore, in some occasions with higher detection requirements, methane detection instruments often use detection instruments with infrared methane sensors. This type of detection instrument can obviously overcome the above-mentioned interference, but the atmospheric pressure in the on-site environment has a greater impact on the measurement accuracy of the infrared methane sensor, and the voltage fluctuation of the instrument circuit connected to the sensor will also cause inaccurate measurement results, ultimately leading to large errors in the instrument's methane detection results.
