[lwptoc] Natural Gas Leak Detection is Changing Natural gas is often considered the safest and cleanest fossil fuel. These features make it popular for industrial and commercial applications. Unfortunately, it can be incredibly dangerous when a natural gas leak goes undetected. While it is non-toxic, natural gas can cause death by suffocation by displacing oxygen. […]

[lwptoc width=”full”] Nearly everyone spends time around cooling appliances, such as refrigerators and air conditioners. However, most people don’t handle refrigerants on a daily basis. Those who do must understand how to safely handle and store these dangerous chemicals, including those designated as A2L refrigerants.  New international agreements related to acceptable refrigerants have emerged due

[lwptoc] Introduced in the 1960s, Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) sensors have been a staple in the gas detection industry for decades. These sensors work by using infrared light to detect the different wavelengths of flammable gases. Many advantages come with using NDIR technology, but they also come with some drawbacks that any user should consider. NDIR

[lwptoc] The Importance of Refrigerant Leak Detectors and Fast Refrigerant Leak Detection Refrigerant leaks are far more common in the HVAC and Refrigeration industries than many realize. And the effects of unaddressed leaks can range from being a mild inconvenience to causing a deadly working environment. Even small leaks, which may go unnoticed, can still

NevadaNano’s line of Molecular Property Spectrometer™ (MPS™) Sensors represent major technological advancement in the industry. These sensors work with modern gas detection systems to ensure worker and customer safety, but they can also be mounted within the same assembly as the electric system that controls the communication and power delivery to the sensor.  The MPS

   With increasing regulations and social demand for climate-friendly options, there are certainly many changes coming to the HVAC and Refrigerant industry over the next few years. This sentiment was a strong theme in the recent Natural Refrigerant Trade Show. Understanding the trends and changes in consumer demand and regulations presents an opportunity for manufacturers

Introduction Over the past few years, there has been an ever-increasing number of Internet of Things projects being launched around the world.  The large majority of these come in two camps.  Using microphones and speakers with machine learning to mimic audio or sound activity and the other camp uses motion sensors to monitor movement activity

The Hydrogen Economy: Origin Story I have been in various industrial sensing roles with companies such as Honeywell, Tyco, Teledyne e2v, and Rolls Royce for the past 24 years.  I have witnessed continuous improvements in fixed and portable safety instruments, but the focus had been on methane gas detection and various hydrocarbons. With the passing

[lwptoc hierarchical=”0″ numeration=”none” width=”full”] Chemical Sensing is Now Better Than Ever Developers of air-monitoring equipment now have a new core technology to deploy for detecting dangerous conditions.  These conditions include methane gas from industrial operations, heavily legislated refrigerant gases, and flammable gas exposure of industrial workers or first responders. NevadaNano has continuously improved and delivered
