Real Gas Detection Module
- 1. As long as they are not covered from view, the points of release can usually be detected visually if solid or liquid chemicals are involved. However, the points of release of gas are relatively difficult to identify visually.
- 2. The real gas detection module features an airtight negative pressure chamber where diluted volatile organic compounds are released through multiple points. The purpose is to improve trainees’ abilities to identify points of release using detection equipment.
- 3. Both the entrance and exit of the chamber are installed with air curtains and buffer space; there is a negative pressure system to direct air containing volatile organic compounds into the exhaust gas treatment facility.
