Ammonia Gas Detection

Ammonia (NH3) is produced during catalyzed combustion processes and is a common byproduct of agriculture and live-stock farming. Ammonia is used in many industrial processes and the need for effective Ammonia Gas Detection is coupled with increasingly strict international safety standards.

Ammonia levels in the atmosphere exist in a low ppb range and it is toxic to humans. The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) for ammonia is 15 %. Depending on the required sensitivity you can itilise either SemiConductor, Electrochemical or Catalytic sensor technologies for Ammonia Gas Detection.

MGD Range- Murco Gas Detectors

Consists of up to 6 remote gas sensors connected to a central controller. The controller provides audible, visual, and relay alarms. Available in 1 or 2 levels of alarm.

MGS Range- Murco Gas Detectors

A fixed gas detector which can detect a wide range of different gases. The sensors can be used on a stand-alone basis or integrated into Controls or Building Management Systems (BMS).

IAM Range- Integrated Area Monitor

A stand alone IAM gas sensor provides visual, audible, and relay alarms. An optional 16-channel panel is available. These can be connected to build larger gas detection and monitoring systems.

ST-IAM Range-Sensor Transmitter IAM

A stand alone ST-IAM sensor provides continuous monitoring and universal outputs: 4-20mA, 0-5V, 0-10V, RS485, and 2 relays. Up to 99 ST-IAMs can be connected to an optional ST-MON panel
