The global market for gas sensors was valued at USD 1,664.8 million in 2012 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period from 2012 to 2018 and reach USD 2,328.3 million by 2018. Strengthening government regulations for safety at workplace and emission control are primarily driving the market for gas sensors.
Industrial maintenance technicians need to be extremely vigilant in inspecting gas systems to ensure they're working to maximum capability. Without proper attention, the results can range from gas losses, gas purity issues and other safety concerns, such as fire or asphyxiation. Spectronics Corporation provides a safe, effective way to detect gas leaks in industrial systems -- Spectroline® PRO-Chek CG™ Combustible Gas Leak Detector (P/N CG-1000).
Six organizations including NIMS, Kyocera, Osaka University, NEC, Sumitomo Seika and NanoWorld jointly launched the MSS Alliance on September 25, 2015, with the purpose of establishing a de facto standard for odor analysis and sensor systems employing an ultra-small sensor element called the Membrane-type Surface stress Sensor (MSS). This initiative is intended to accelerate practical use and popularization of such systems.
A spin-off of the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M), Sensia Solutions, has developed a new low-cost infrared camera that makes it possible to quickly and efficiently detect gas leaks that can occur in different industrial facilities.
These reports provide gas sensor market analysis for the international markets including development trends, competitive landscape analysis and key regions development status. Company profiles, tables and figures support the comprehensive analysis.
Smoke detectors are everywhere, but still thousands of people die in fires annually. Fire gas detectors, which detect carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide, identify fires at an early stage. Thanks to a new measurement principle developed by Fraunhofer researchers, these costly sensors will soon be inexpensive and ready for the mass market.
The unique properties found in the stunning iridescent wings of a tropical blue butterfly could hold the key to developing new highly selective gas detection sensors.
Gas leak detectors are equipment that indicates the presence of gases in ambient air using technologies such as electrochemical, infrared and ultrasonic. These devices are used to detect toxic and combustible gases in order to maintain safety during operations. Gas leak detectors are generally available in two different types; portable which are handheld can be used for personal safety as well.
CO2Meter, Inc. will present an educational session on carbon dioxide gas, its effects, and how to monitor for it to the Fire Prevention Association of Nevada (FPAN) on August 19, 2015 in Las Vegas, NV.
Stringent regulations imposed by the governments across the globe promoting occupational safety and health of employees is the major factor driving the demand for gas detection equipment across the globe.
