Detecting hard-to-find carbon dioxide leaks
Published: 07 March, 2016
FLIR Systems GF343 is said to be a high performance gas imaging camera designed to visually detect Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in real time. The company says incorporating a cooled Indium Antimonide (InSb) detector the FLIR GF343 is able to provide sensitive detection of even tiny CO2 gas leaks. Carbon Dioxide gas leaks are displayed as plumes of vapour in the camera's infrared image.
Flir says optical gas imaging using the FLIR GF343 is more effective than traditional CO2 sensors because the camera scans a broader area much more rapidly enabling customers to locate hard-to-find leaks more quickly and because the GF343 lets customers detect CO2 gas leaks quickly, easily and from a safe remote distance it also offers significant advantages over contact measurement tools, particularly in difficult to reach areas.

Flowhire is a specialist in flow measurement rental services for liquids, steam and gas and supports process industries as diverse as paper and pulp, brewing, oil and gas and engine development with a wide range of equipment, from mag flow meters through to more complex vortex and Coriolis installations. The company also maintains a fleet of sixteen non-invasive KATRONIC clamp-on portable ultrasonic flow meters.
Hydra-Cell pumps from WANNER are said to meet the challenges of flue gas scrubbing in terms of corrosion resistance and their ability to handle abrasive particulate matter. The company says in the wake of the recent automotive emissions scandals, air pollution control has again taken ‘centre stage’ and the challenge of minimising the environmental impact of industrial processes has never been greater.
