Marine Leak Detection Gases and Gas Systems typically include the following key specifications and technical properties:
Size: Gas cylinders range from 10L to 50L, with portable detectors measuring 150mm to 300mm in length.
Grade: High-purity tracer gases (e.g., helium, hydrogen, or sulfur hexafluoride) with purity levels ≥99.99%.
Viscosity: Low viscosity for rapid dispersion (e.g., helium: ~19.9 μPa·s at 20°C).
Buoyancy: Helium is highly buoyant (lighter than air), while sulfur hexafluoride is dense (heavier than air).
Material: Gas cylinders are typically aluminum or stainless steel; detectors use corrosion-resistant polymers and metals.
Pressure: Gas storage at 150-300 bar, depending on cylinder type.
Detection Sensitivity: Systems detect leaks as small as 1x10⁻⁶ mbar·L/s.
Operating Temperature: -20°C to +50°C for most systems.
Response Time: ≤1 second for real-time detection.
Power Supply: 12V-24V DC or rechargeable batteries (8-24 hours runtime).
