White Paper

The potential for fire exists wherever there are hydrocarbons. Open path detectors provide protection by warning when combustible gases and vapors are escaping.

The presence of combustible gases or vapors mixed with air in concentrations sufficient to support combustion is a disaster waiting to happen. All such a release needs is an ignition source to move to the next level of damage. Fortunately, open path gas detection technologies exist to detect clouds of hydrocarbon gases such as natural gas, propane, gasoline vapor, and others.
