Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gas monitoring technology, and more specifically, to a combustible and explosive organic gas analyzer. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the main methods for monitoring flammable and explosive gases include the following two:

[0003] 1. Equipment based on the FTA principle. This type of equipment is currently mainly imported, which is relatively expensive. In addition, this type of FTA detector relies on the heat generated by combustible gas and needs to work continuously without interruption. The heat generated by the continuously burning combustible gas accumulates inside the detector, and the detector will continuously increase the reference temperature over time, which will cause errors in the detection results and lead to false alarms.

[0004] 2. Detection equipment based on infrared and PID principles: Infrared does not respond to all compounds, and PID does not respond to some organic compounds. This can lead to incomplete detection of organic compounds and an inability to fully reflect the overall situation of flammable and explosive gases, which can easily result in false alarms.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a convenient, efficient, real-time, and rapid gas monitoring device. Summary of the Invention
