Gas detectors
At PCE-Group you will find profession quality gas detectors for everyday use within a company. Here you will find gas detectors that meet the requirements for personal safetyand that are used mainly for the detection of methane, hydrogen sulphide, carbon monoxide and oxygen levels (along with 50 other possible gases). The auto-calibration function allows for easy recalibration of the gas detectors. Some of them have have the ability to store data and later transfer recorded values to a computer. One accessory is the manual aspirator, with this device you can draw gas directly into the analyser via a 2m long tube with which you will be able to measure gas levels without having to be in direct contact to the gas source or to be able to determine the levels of gas in places that are difficult to access. Furthermore, we have a series of fixed installation detectors available. You can use independently or in conjunction with a gas detection installation. These meters can provide readings with or without a display, via data output, etc. All our gas detectors meet European and International standards, including ATEX (here you will find Information about ATEX). You can also calibrate, certify the detectors and later recalibrate and have annual maintenance.  If you don't find the gas detectors you are looking for, please contact us and we will help you find the best solution to suit your needs by calling our German offices: +49 (0)29 03 976 99-52; our Italian offices: +39 0583 975 114; or our Spanish offices: +34 967 543 548 and our technical staff will advise you regarding our measuring instruments.

You can view the technical specifications for our gas detectors at the following links:  

- PCE-GA 3 series Gas detectors 
  (detect flammable gases and has an LED alarm along with an acoustic warning)

- PCE-LD 1 series Gas detectors 
 (for air conditioning and refrigeration systems)

Practically all our gas detectors are ATEX certified. What does this mean?

ATEX production standards (officially know as "ATEX 95" for Article 95 in the EG  document for the free movement of products.) of the European Parliament and the European Council of State members for gas detectors and protective systems to be used in dangerous environments, have been put in place to include products used in these sectors. This standard includes non-electrical devices for the first time, as moving parts can ignite due to unforeseen overheating. The purpose of the standard is to protect people who work in environments where there is a risk of explosion. The standard contains, in appendix II, the basic requirements for the health and safety that the manufacturer must have in place to and should check with the corresponding EC regulations.
