Combustible gas safety monitoring: Infrared vs. catalytic gas detectors

When designing a combustible gas safety monitoring system, how do you decide whether to use infrared or catalytic gas detector technology? Both sensing technologies have their advantages depending upon the application's specific requirements. A thorough analysis of your application's unique field environment is needed to ensure optimal performance, safety, reliability and cost-effectiveness. This white paper from General Monitors Inc. guides you through the process of choosing the gas sensing technology that is right for your company.

Both catalytic detectors and infrared detectors  reliably detect gas at or below the lower explosive limit and are suitable for use in a broad variety of field application environments.
