The difference between the gas alarm and carbon monoxide alarm

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, tasteless, no stimulation, can´t use facial perception of poisonous gas, can restrain the oxygen-carrying ability of blood. Many people feel that the carbon monoxide alarm is gas alarm, actually otherwise. And there is the difference of the two, if you need to install the place of carbon monoxide alarm installed the gas alarm, or the place of the need to install the gas alarm installed carbon monoxide announciator are likely to bring threat to people´s life and property.

Carbon monoxide alarm is mainly used to detect the carbon monoxide (CO) gas in the air, and gas alarm system is mainly used to detect the alkanes gas such as methane (CH4) in the air, that is to say, gas and carbon monoxide alarm and alarm has essential difference.

City of coal gas pipe is a kind of special gas, it contains both CO, and gas containing alkanes. So if we can only detect pipeline gas leak, can use carbon monoxide alarm detection can also be used gas alarm detection. But if you want to detect pipeline gas, liquefied petroleum gas or coal gas when burning whether produce too much carbon monoxide gas, requires the use of carbon monoxide alarm detection. In addition, with coal stove heating, coal burning is carbon monoxide (CO) gas, such as not gas methane (CH4), and other alkanes. So you should use carbon monoxide announciator rather than gas alarm. If in the use of coal stove heating, the occasion of burning coal gas alarm installation is of no use, poisoned, gas alarm will not ringing. It is quite dangerous.

Carbon monoxide alarm is suitable for gas, petroleum, chemical industry, fire protection, metallurgy, hotels, mines and other combustible gas using existing venues and toxic gases. This product can effectively avoid the fire caused by combustible gas leakage, explosion, poisoning, etc. Personal casualty and property loss.
