Ammonia Gas Detectors from International Gas Detectors – We can provide a range of fixed sensors and portable gas monitors for the detection of NH3.
It is important for many industries to have accurate and fast detection of ammonia to avoid the gas reaching dangerous toxic levels.
Discover our range of ammonia monitors and associated instruments. Designed specifically for the detection of ammonia. Our ammonia gas detector range includes:
(Short Term exposure Limit – 15mins)
(Time Weighted Average – 8 hrs)
25ppm
35ppm
Optional
Ammonia gas is lighter than air and will rise however in the presence of moisture (such as high relative humidity). The liquified anhydrous ammonia gas forms vapours that are heavier than air. This can increase the risk of exposure from leaks to personnel, particularly in large NH3 refrigeration plant.
Ammonia is composed of Nitrogen and Hydrogen. It is a colourless gas with a characteristic pungent smell. Ammonia (NH3) is one of the most commonly produced industrial chemicals. NH3 is very toxic and also flammable with an LEL of 16%
In the environment, Ammonia is part of the nitrogen cycle and is produced in soil from bacterial processes. NH3 is also produced naturally from decomposition of organic matter, including plants, animals and animal wastes.
As fewer and fewer CFCs and HCFCs are available for use as refrigerants, ammonia has become popular as a replacement. Ammonia is a cost-effective, efficient alternative to CFCs and HCFCs that is also safe for the environment.
Frequently used commercially in large freezing and refrigeration plants is also called “anhydrous ammonia” because it contains almost no water (it is 99.98% pure). 750X Series ATEX gas detectors and 2-Wire 750 series samplers; are commonly deployed into Ammonia refrigeration plant rooms for ammonia gas detector. TOC-750 safe area gas detectors and 2-Wire 750 sampler (pictured below) series are commonly deployed to monitor Ammonia valve stations and evaporators.
