Gas Detection Q&A - For Your Safety Environments
Built-in advanced gas detector sensor and sound & light alarm to ensure precise and safe gas detection in hazardous applications.
Q: Can a portable CO2 monitor detect other gases?
A: A portable CO2 gas monitor is specifically designed to measure Carbon Dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the air using infrared (IR) sensors or electrochemical cells. It is highly accurate for detecting CO2 but generally cannot detect other gases unless it is part of a multi-gas detector system. CO2 monitors are single-gas detectors tailored to measure the risks associated with elevated Carbon Dioxide levels, commonly used in environments like breweries, greenhouses, or industrial settings. If the application requires monitoring a variety of gases, a multi-gas detector is the best option. GasDog multi gas detectors combine multiple sensors into one unit to measure several gases simultaneously, ensuring comprehensive safety in hazardous environments.
