Скачать или смотреть Gas detector layout optimisation study using FLACS-CFD by Gexcon

For most accidental toxic and flammable gases releases onshore and offshore, the industry depends heavily on gas detection systems that alarm or trigger interlocking systems to avoid the formation and development of large amounts of hazardous materials in a process area.

An efficient gas detection system is therefore vital in managing risks related to those scenarios in your facilities.

But do we know if and how fast these detector systems will react to an accidental hazardous gas release?

The British Health and Safety Executive (HSE) published a report stating that only 30 % of all major gas leaks in the British industrial sector were detected by a gas detection system.

This brings concerns about the effectiveness of a safety system in place on which a client relies to protect against potential significant hazards.

Gexcon has vast experience to assess the performance and optimization of your (toxic or flammable) gas detection system.

From simplistic approaches to more computationally accurate and detailed methods, we can perform simulations on a model of your facility to help determine the performance of your detection system and help you improve it.

Field of Studies
• Verification of the installed detector system
• Comparison of alternate detector layouts
• Testing of different detector set points or voting schemes
• Suggestion for new layout/ alarm criteria
