Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detection Considerations - MSA Safety

  • MSA's fire and gas mapping is a solution that assists in the evaluation of flame and gas risks within a processing facility and reducing these risks towards an acceptable risk profile.
  • Fire and gas mapping considers the application, sensor technologies, detector placement, zoning, probability of alarming with voting and non-voting systems, and the best measurement range to achieve the highest possible detection coverage - ultimately determining the optimal number of detectors.
  • Fire and gas mapping includes placing of detectors in appropriate locations to achieve the best possible detection coverage.
  • Fixed flame and gas detector systems are designed and installed to protect large and complex areas filled with process equipment from risks of combustible or toxic gas leaks, explosions and flames.
  • For these systems to be effective, it is important that they offer a high likelihood of detecting the presence of flame and gas hazards within monitored process areas.
  • Determining the optimal quantity and location of flame and gas detectors is therefore critical to ensure the detection system’s effectiveness.

 

Key benefits

  • Since the original Gassonic design, the latest Ultrasonic Gas Leak Detection (UGLD) devices have been through major developments. The latest model form MSA is the Observer® i and is the Third Generation of UGLD. The Observer-i has the following benefits:
    • Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technology, which is the software that is built in to the UGLD, has a wide range of acoustic noise patterns from real pressurized gas leaks and background noise signatures found on industrial plants.
    • When undertaking a new fire and gas mapping design utilizing the Observer-i, it is possible to accurately design the UGLD system without testing noise levels onsite. This is because the Observer-i detection range and coverage area is a known factor and because of its ANN technology, it will be unaffected by the background noise levels on site.
    • The ANN technology also means that there is no requirement for sound mapping surveys after the initial installation or later on, should site conditions change.
    • The Third Generation of UGLD is “plug-and-play”, so as soon as it is powered up, it is ready for use and therefore no expensive sites visits are generally required for commissioning.
    • The ANN technology of the Observer-i also extends the detection range over other traditional UGLDs, which means that there is the potential cost saving as less UGLDs would be required.
