Gas Detectors & Gas Monitoring Solutions
Gas detectors (also known as gas testers or gas monitors) are used to detect hazardous gases, vapours and oxygen levels in industrial and confined environments. AES supplies a wide range of gas and vapour monitors for personal safety and fixed plant gas monitoring across Australia.
Our range includes portable gas detectors, fixed gas monitoring systems, confined space monitors, PID vapour detectors and wireless gas detection infrastructure, designed to detect flammable, toxic and oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
AES is a trusted Australian supplier of certified gas detection equipment for industrial, mining, wastewater, oil & gas and confined space applications.
There are various gas hazards that may be present in industrial environments, each posing serious risks to human life and requiring continuous gas monitoring to ensure safe exposure levels.
Oxygen Monitoring
Gas monitors measure oxygen levels to ensure atmospheres remain breathable. Oxygen normally exists at 20.9%. Most gas detectors alarm at 19.5% (oxygen deficient) and 23.5% (oxygen enriched), both of which can present serious safety and fire risks.
Oxygen deficiency or enrichment can occur in confined spaces, tanks, tunnels and processing plants, making continuous oxygen monitoring essential for worker safety.
Flammable Gas Detection
Flammable gases and vapours ignite within defined lower and upper explosive limits (LEL and UEL). Gas detectors continuously monitor these levels to prevent fire and explosion hazards in hazardous areas.
Flammable gas detection is critical in oil and gas facilities, refineries, fuel storage areas, chemical processing plants and other high-risk environments.
Toxic Gas Monitoring
Many gas detectors and vapour monitors detect toxic gases such as carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen sulphide (H2S). Toxic gas monitoring is critical in confined spaces, industrial plants and wastewater environments.
Exposure to toxic gases above permissible exposure limits (PELs) can cause serious health effects, making reliable gas detection systems essential for workplace safety compliance.
