In modern industrial production, various gases are widely used. While these gases bring convenience to our production and life, they may also bring potential safety risks. Therefore, accurate and real-time monitoring of the concentration of industrial gases has become an important part of ensuring production safety and improving production efficiency. This article will detail the importance, methods, and equipment for industrial gas concentration monitoring.
1. The importance of industrial gas concentration monitoring.
1.Ensure production safety: Many industrial gases are flammable, explosive, toxic and other characteristics, such as hydrogen, methane, ammonia, etc. If the concentration of these gases exceeds the safe range, it may cause serious accidents such as fire and **, which poses a great threat to the safety of personnel and equipment and facilities.
2.Improve production efficiency: In many production processes, the concentration of gases directly affects the quality and efficiency of the product. For example, in fertilizer production, the concentration of ammonia directly determines the active ingredient content of the fertilizer;In semiconductor manufacturing, the concentration of oxygen and nitrogen affects the performance and quality of the chip.
2. Methods for monitoring the concentration of industrial gases.
1.Sampling Analysis: This is the most commonly used monitoring method that results in the concentration of a gas by taking a sample of the gas and then sending it to a laboratory for analysis. This method is highly accurate, but requires specialized equipment and specialized personnel, as well as a long reaction time.
2.**Monitoring method: This method monitors the concentration of the gas in real time through sensors installed at the production site and transmits the data directly to the control room. This method has a fast response speed and is easy to operate, but the equipment cost is high.
3. Equipment for monitoring industrial gas concentration.
1.Infrared analyzer: This is a commonly used gas concentration monitoring device, which can quickly and accurately analyze the concentration of various gases.
2.Electrochemical sensor: This sensor uses the principle of electrochemical reaction to monitor the concentration of various gases in real time, with low equipment cost and simple maintenance.
3.Laser analyzer: This device uses the principle of laser absorption to accurately measure the concentration of gases regardless of environmental factors.
In summary, industrial gas concentration monitoring is an important part of ensuring production safety and improving production efficiency. By choosing the right monitoring methods and equipment, we can effectively control the concentration of gases, avoid safety accidents, and improve production efficiency and product quality at the same time.
