It is not uncommon for a facility that uses conventional Open Path Gas Detection (OPGD) to experience excessive faults, false alarms, and late night calls from control room operators.  For a more advanced approach in gas detection, MSA is pleased to announce the recent acquisition of Senscient’s patented Enhanced Laser Diode Spectroscopy (ELDS) technology.

Determining the optimal quantity and location of flame and gas detectors is critical to ensure the detection system's effectiveness.  MSA's new Fire and Gas Mapping Video details the framework for determining effectiveness based on mathematics.
