Real-Time Gas Measurement and Analysis

The real-time monitoring and analysis of gases in environmental and industrial processes is critical for protecting human health and ensuring compliance with legal regulations. Real-time gas measurement systems continuously monitor air quality, emissions, and the presence of hazardous gases, enabling the detection of potential risks and prompt intervention.

These systems are equipped with advanced sensor technologies that can measure the concentrations of specific gases with high precision. Continuous data flow allows for real-time situation analysis and, when necessary, the activation of automatic alarm systems. This ensures both occupational safety and environmental sustainability, while also optimizing energy efficiency.

The primary applications of real-time gas measurement and analysis systems include industrial plants, power stations, waste management facilities, and urban air quality monitoring projects. These systems are essential tools for preventing the release of hazardous gases and minimizing environmental damage.

Today, environmental protection policies and occupational safety standards mandate the integration of real-time gas measurement technologies.

Gas Measurement with Electrochemical Cell Method

The electrochemical cell method is a widely used technique for accurately measuring the concentration of gases. This method plays a crucial role, particularly in the detection of toxic and harmful gases, providing reliable results.

Electrochemical sensors operate by causing a chemical reaction between gas molecules and the surface of an electrode. This reaction generates a specific electric current, which is directly proportional to the concentration of the measured gas. This allows for the precise detection of gases, even at ppm (parts per million) levels.

The electrochemical cell method is commonly used for detecting gases such as carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO₂), and oxygen (O₂). These sensors offer advantages such as low energy consumption, long life, and high accuracy. Additionally, their ability to monitor in real-time makes them an effective solution for detecting gas leaks or sudden increases in gas concentration.

Real-Time Gas Measurement with Detector Tubes

Detector tubes are simple yet effective devices used to quickly and practically measure the concentration of gases. This method is particularly preferred in fieldwork and emergency situations to rapidly determine the type and concentration of a gas.

The detector tube system consists of glass tubes filled with a special reactive substance that the gas passes through. When a specific gas reacts chemically with this substance, it causes a color change. The user can determine the concentration of the gas by observing the extent or intensity of the color change. The tubes typically have a scale that indicates the measurement results, allowing for quick and easy interpretation.

Detector tubes can be used to detect various gases, including carbon monoxide (CO), ammonia (NH₃), chlorine (Cl₂), hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), and many organic vapors. Their advantages include portability, low cost, and no need for complex calibration. However, the accuracy of detector tubes may be lower compared to more sensitive technologies like electrochemical sensors, but they are highly useful in emergencies or situations requiring quick assessments.

Our company offers real-time gas measurement services using detector tubes, particularly for customers who need fast and reliable results in the field. This method is an effective solution for detecting gas leaks, checking ventilation systems, and determining sudden gas concentrations in workplaces.

Our Expertise in Real-Time Gas Measurement and Analysis

Our company has extensive experience and expertise in real-time gas measurement and analysis. The key services and advantages we offer to our clients include:

Measurement Planning: The first step involves identifying at-risk workplaces and employee groups. At this stage, we determine which workstations and employees will be included in the measurement.

Equipment Installation: Personal noise dosimeters are placed on employees whose exposure will be measured. These devices continuously record the noise levels that employees are exposed to during their daily activities.

Data Collection: Data is recorded throughout the employees' working hours. This data is used to measure gas exposure at specific time intervals and under different working conditions.

Analysis: The collected data is analyzed by our expert team to evaluate the gas levels that employees are exposed to. This evaluation is compared against legal limits to determine whether the exposure is within acceptable levels.

Compliance and Certification: We conduct measurements in accordance with all legal regulations, legislation, and standards. We hold accreditation certificates from the Turkish Accreditation Agency (TÜRKAK) under TS EN ISO/IEC 17025 and from the Ministry of Labor and Social Security (İSGÜM).

Reporting: The analysis results are presented in detailed reports. These reports provide employers and occupational safety experts with comprehensive information on noise exposure and help ensure that necessary precautions are taken.
