Measure Gas Cloud Concentrations at Multiple Points

| By Chemical Engineering

The SafEye Xenon 800 Open Path Gas Detection System (photo) monitors a gas cloud’s concentration across 120 m where the gas concentration may not be uniform. The 800 offers operational integrity in up to 90% signal obscuration, resisting false alarms, poisoning, fog and many more extreme climates with a combination of triple optics and a dual-spectrum sensor. It reportedly detects a broad range of hydrocarbons over an open path. — Mine Safety Appliances, Pittsburg, Pa.
