Energetic materials are defined as those with a high amount of stored chemical energy that can be released. Materials classes included are explosives, pyrotechnic compositions and propellants....
There can be confusion between equipment for process gas monitoring and gas detection systems for life safety. Life safety systems mitigate risks stemming from leaks of toxic and/or combustible gases, help prevent explosions and harm to workers caused by leaking gas, and in turn, reduce costly downtime. ...
The Issue: Liquid natural gas (LNG) facilities in the Russian Arctic. Drilling platforms in the swells of the North Sea. Pipelines that cross miles of heaving permafrost or blowing desert sands. These are some of the settings where industrial fire and gas detectors encounter extreme conditions and yet must perform accurately and dependably....

Flame and gas hazards are not the only dangers rig and platform workers need protection from – false alarms pose dangers to workers and can be expensive in production losses. Depending on the detection technology used, false alarms can arise from a variety of situations: welding and reflected sunlight, for example....
Detector Electronics Corporation (Det-Tronics) GT3000 Toxic Gas Detectors have received ATEX hazardous location and performance certification. In addition, GT3000 Toxic Gas Detectors are FM, CSA, CE, and IECEx certified and have earned the IP66 rating. The GT3000 family is a group of electrochemical fixed-point detectors that provide non-intrusive calibration, communication via 4-20mA with HART protocol, and the ability to swap sensors without de-classifying hazardous areas....
Detector Electronics Corporation (Det-Tronics) has announced that its Eagle Quantum Premier (EQP) system has received Type-Approval from the United States Coast Guard (USCG) and from Lloyd’s Register (http://eqp.det-tronics.com)....
Det-Tronics has launched flame detectors and gas detectors that use the HART communication protocol. The announcement came as Det-Tronics added HART functionality to its X9800, X2200, and X5200 flame detectors....
