Emerson's New Gas Detector

Emerson recently launched two new open circuit gas detectors, which can provide reliable performance and simpler and faster installation and commissioning process for a wide range in extreme environments, so as to improve safety and reduce downtime. Extreme environments, including severe vibration conditions and operating temperatures from - 55 ℃ (67 ℉) to 65 ℃ (149 ℉), are common in oil and gas, refining, chemical industry, mining and large refrigeration system operation.

Rosemount ™ 935 open circuit combustible gas detector uses infrared technology to detect various highly combustible hydrocarbon gases, including methane, propane and ethylene. According to the latest statistics of CDC National Institute of occupational safety and health, 22% of fatal accidents in the oil and gas industry alone come from explosion (combustion or fire) and exposure to harmful gases.

Rosemount ™ 935 open circuit combustible gas detector uses ultraviolet technology to detect hydrogen sulfide and ammonia, which are two common toxic gases in industrial facilities. The occupational safety and health administration of the United States believes that when the concentration of hydrogen sulfide reaches 100ppm, it will immediately cause danger to life and health. Ammonia will stimulate skin, eyes, nose and respiratory tract at 130ppm. When exposed to a certain degree, both gases can be fatal.
