About Senscient ELDSTM OPGD
ELDSTM is a patented, new open path gasdetection (OPGD) technology from Senscient.The innovative Enhanced Laser Diode Spectroscopy (ELDSTM) detection technology featuredin our ELDSTM Series of open path gasdetectors truly fulfills the promise of fit-and forget open path gas detection.
- Reliable detection of both toxic & flammable gases.
- Industry’s first false-alarm free Open Path Gas Detector. ELDSTM detection is molecular species specific, eliminating false alarms from common atmospheric or non-hazardous gases that plague traditional OPGD (or any NDIR or LDS technology) systems.
- FIRST and ONLY open path toxic gas detector to meet current industry Safety Performance Standards.
- FIRST and ONLY gas detector with SimuGas™, an electronic, remote functionality check.
- 3 orders of magnitude greater sensitivity for combustible gases versus conventional OP systems.
- Up to 60% reduction in gas detection project Cap Ex and COO, with true Fit-&-Forget functionality.
- Backed by a network of industry leading gas detection solutions providers
Senscient ELDSTM Series 1000 Methane Detector -
Features / Benefits:
- Reliable, open path detection of methane at levels low enough to provide early warning for leakage of this highly flammable gas. Detection Limits for methane leak detection are orders of magnitude lower than any other OPGD product.
- No false alarms from any other hydrocarbon gases including diesel fumes or oil mist.
- True ease-of-installation, with vibration and misalignment tolerant optics.
- SimuGasTM feature provides ability to accomplish on-demand, remote functionality testing right from the control room or PLC!
Applications :
- Offshore Platforms, FPSO’s, Onshore Petrochemical facilities and Refineries.
Theory of Operation :
Using a separate transmitter and receiver configuration, Senscient ELDSTM Series 1000 Methane OPGD systems can detect and measure methane over distances between 5 and 200 m. The ELDSTM technique measures the Harmonic Fingerprint introduced onto the transmitter’s laser beam(s) by absorption by any target gas in the monitored path.
