Gas & Flame Detection in Chemical Production

Chemical production involves the use and production of many hazardous substances, including both toxic and hydrocarbon gases. Every facet of a chemical plant should be monitored, to ensure the safety of onsite personnel and facilities, as well as neighboring areas. Chemical manufacturers that mix and distill combustible chemicals need broad gas detection and flame detection solutions, especially in distillation columns, tank farms and other storage facilities. Chemical distributors should also implement gas monitoring systems to detect leaks in tanks, pipelines, mixing equipment, valves and compressors. Gas leak monitoring and flame detection should also be installed at loading docks for maximum safety. Rosemount™ gas detectors monitor and detect combustible gas vapors, triggering warning systems and helping to prevent a potential fire. If a fire does start, Rosemount flame detectors can detect flames of differing fuel types and at various distances to help keep people and assets safe.
