The lightweight Laser Methane detector is selective even if other gases are present. It detects methane at concentrations between 10–10,000ppm up to 150 metres away in less than 0.1 seconds, even through glass. Applications can be found in all areas where methane leakage or build-up is a risk. The unit can also be fixed in a permanent position toperiodically scan a given area. The portable, compact device comprises a single gun unit and has no additional parts or battery packs, in combination with its light weight of 1.35kg this makes it very easy tocarry and operate in the field. It has a built-in test cell which self -tests the instrument at switch-on and during use. When methane is detected, the basic unit’s LED light and buzzer give visual and audible signals respectively. There is an upgrade option with a LCD display foractual gas readings in a graphical format which may be saved to a built-in SD memory card and downloaded to a PC. The Laser Methane conforms to EN 61000-6-4: 2001 and EN 61000-6-2:1999 and the laser has a safety rating of IEC 60825-1 (JIS C6802).
