In addition to using natural gas in industry, there are also many places where natural gas is used in daily life. Today, Huiruipu editor will talk about the hazards of natural gas leakage and explosion.

1. After reaching a certain level of concentration in the air, natural gas can cause suffocation. If natural gas is in a high concentration state and the oxygen in the air is insufficient to sustain life, it can still cause death, as natural gas cannot be used for human respiration.

2. When natural gas accumulates in enclosed environments such as houses or tents and reaches a certain proportion, it will trigger a powerful explosion. The explosion may flatten the entire house and even affect neighboring buildings. The lower explosive limit of methane in air is 5%, and the upper limit is 15%.

3. The explosion of compressed natural gas used in natural gas vehicle engines is basically not present under spontaneous conditions due to the volatile nature of the gas. Therefore, external force is required to maintain the concentration of natural gas between 5% and 15% to trigger the explosion.

How can natural gas leaks/gas leaks be detected as soon as possible? Firstly, we need to analyze the main components of the gas. The main component of natural gas is methane, and the main component of coal gas is carbon monoxide. Therefore, we only need to be able to measure whether the concentrations of these two gases exceed the safe range. Huiruipu Electronics focuses on the research, development, production, and sales of gas alarms and gas detectors. Supply household natural gas alarms, industrial natural gas alarms, learn more about our products, consult us.

Here, Huiruipu reminds everyone again that every time natural gas and coal gas are used up at home, the valve must be closed. Laba has passed, and those of you who are going home for the Chinese New Year holiday should check again before leaving to ensure that the power valve and natural gas valve are closed.
