Det-Tronics Gas Detection Systems deliver industry-leading, certified solutions for detecting combustible, toxic, oxygen depletion, and hydrocarbon gas hazards—protecting personnel, assets, and critical processes in high-risk industrial environments worldwide.
As part of Det-Tronics’ comprehensive fire and gas safety portfolio (since 1973), these fixed-point and open-path detectors provide reliable, low-maintenance monitoring for explosive atmospheres, toxic leaks, and oxygen-deficient conditions. Key technologies include infrared point detectors, electrochemical toxic sensors, line-of-sight (LOS) infrared for large-area coverage, and acoustic/leak detectors—many with SIL 2 capability, exida awards, and global certifications (FM, ATEX, IECEx, etc.).
Det-Tronics gas detection integrates seamlessly with fire protection ecosystems—pairing with Potter fire alarm panels for coordinated signaling, Starlink 24-hour monitoring for reliable central station alerts, and suppression systems like Fike ECARO-25, Firetrace, Stat-X, or Badger to enable early intervention before gas hazards escalate to fires or explosions.
Key Benefits
- Proven reliability & performance — Field-proven infrared and electrochemical sensors minimize false alarms, require infrequent calibration, and deliver fast, accurate detection in harsh conditions (extreme temperatures, humidity, dust).
- Comprehensive detection range —
- Combustible gases — PointWatch Eclipse® PIRECL (infrared, multi-gas capable for hydrocarbons/LEL), CGS series, and others for 0-100% LEL.
- Line-of-sight — FlexSight™ LS2000 for continuous monitoring of hydrocarbon clouds over distances up to 120 meters in open areas.
- Toxic & oxygen — GT3000 electrochemical detectors for H2S, CO, NH3, SO2, and more; oxygen depletion monitoring.
- Specialty — Acoustic leak detectors and additional sensors for broad hazard coverage.
- Certified & SIL-capable — Many models SIL 2 capable; supports certified fire & gas systems (e.g., Eagle Quantum Premier® EQP controller) for integrated flame/gas detection, alarming, and release.
- Rugged & low-maintenance — Explosion-proof/intrinsically safe designs; HART/RS-485 Modbus communication; long sensor life and easy integration with control systems.
- Early warning & prevention — Rapid response to leaks prevents ignition, explosions, or health risks; customizable alarm levels trigger ventilation, shutdowns, or suppression activation.
- Versatile applications — Ideal for oil & gas facilities, petrochemical plants, refineries, offshore platforms, gas turbines, chemical processing, utilities, and other high-hazard industries.
- Cost-effective safety — Reduces downtime, maintenance costs, and risk; proven in extreme environments for maximum uptime and compliance (NFPA, OSHA, FM Global, etc.).
