Gas detectors for the laboratory, physics and chemistry room

Precise and safe gas detection effectively increases personal safety in laboratories, physics and chemistry rooms. Gas detection in these environments is often a necessity or mandated due to the risk of explosion or the risk of release of toxic gases.

In laboratories, physics and chemistry rooms, propane, butane or methane gas is often used for Bunsen burners. These gases pose a safety risk to you, your colleagues and any students if an accident occurs and they leak into the room. This applies both if the gas cylinders are stored in the room or if the gas is piped to the work tables. Regardless, it is crucial that any spills are closely monitored.

In laboratories, physics and chemistry rooms, one to four stationary gas detectors are typically installed in the room – depending on the size of the room – as well as a central gas alarm for evacuation.

The gas detectors continuously monitor any gas leaks and give an alarm when limit values are reached. The associated central unit ensures automatic control of the shutdown of gas supply, ventilation, blinkers and horns. You comply with all safety requirements, effectively reduce the risk of explosion and increase workplace safety for you, your colleagues and any students with gas detection equipment from GasDetect A/S.
