Groveley Detection’s free app allows the user to input plant size, area of coverage, gas pressure, gas temperature and background ultrasonic noise levels.
It indicates approximately how many Incus detectors are required to protect a hazardous area under given circumstances. The app is a first step before embarking on an ultrasonic mapping survey to monitor background ultrasonic noise levels and determine optimum positioning of the detectors – which is always advisable when utilising UGLDs.
Ultrasonic/acoustic gas detectors instantly detect gas leaks by 'hearing' the sound generated by escaping gas, rather than responding to specific measurements of LEL or ppm.
It is the only commonly-available method of detection able to detect a gas leak without the gas cloud needing to come into direct contact with the detector. The technology is impervious to wind, fog or gas dilution and is therefore very reliable in outdoor installations.
