The National Institute of Metrology, Standardization and Industrial Quality certification has been awarded to Senscient for the ELDS Series Open Path Gas Detectors.
The InMetro accreditation of the ELDS Series 1000/2000 Open Path Gas Detectors enables the company to export the gas detector products to Brazil and ensures that the systems meet the optimal safety, quality and performance standards.
The Vice President of Senscient, Jean Berthold stated that the certification for the advanced Open Path Gas Detection systems received through the University of Sao Paulo at Brazil assures South American customers of Senscient of the operational safety and technical competence of the company.
Ideally suited for hazardous and unsafe industrial atmospheres, the false-alarm free Senscient ELDS Series 1000 and 2000 systems are capable of measuring toxic and flammable gases. The highly sensitive gas detectors can detect combustible gases with a higher accuracy than other competitive products available in the market. The ELDS Open Path Gas Detection series offer a high degree of reliability in detecting carbon dioxide, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen sulfide, methane and ammonia. It ensures that a flammable gas leak is detected before it endangers the facility and its workers.
Enhanced Laser Diode Spectroscopy is a patented gas-detection technology that offers increased sensitivity for hydrocarbons. ELDS technology eliminates the issues associated with fixed gas detectors, such as false alarms, re-calibration, routine sensor replacement and unreliable readings.
The ELDS Series 1000 and 2000 Open Path Gas Detectors are best suited for refineries, offshore platforms, onshore petrochemical facilities, mid-industrial facilities, coal mine ventilation systems, industrial refrigerants and FPSO’s (floating production, storage and offloading units).
