Manufacturing and production facilities with hazardous locations due to the possibility of combustible and/or toxic gases require effective flame and gas detection systems. It’s important to develop and implement a sound strategy to keep personnel and plant assets safe.
Developing a risk mitigation strategy that enables the different response levels needed to support your site is critical for the health and safety of your people. This strategy includes comprehensive flame and gas detection technologies for:
- Instant detection of pressurized gas leaks
- Combustible and toxic gas detection solutions
- Detection of the fire type that is a risk in your facility
As part of your strategy to detect, distinguish, and defend against these risks, flame & gas detection technologies play a key role in managing potentially dangerous situations. Emerson’s Rosemount Ultrasonic Leak Detection solutions provide instant detection of pressurized gas leaks.
From a distinguish standpoint, should a gas leak be detected, it is important to receive notification and respond as quickly as possible to avoid potentially hazardous conditions. Combustible gas detection and toxic gas detection solutions help you to distinguish a variety of situations.
An explosive event, such as a high-pressure jet fire and wide area explosive fire can be potentially catastrophic. Each specific fuel releases a unique combination of residual hot gases. Emerson has a broad line of optical flame detectors to detect the type of fire that is a risk in your facility.
