Portable G10 TDLAS Methane Detector with Internal Pump and Probe

G10 Portable Laser Methane Detector with Internal Pump

The G10 is a portable TDLAS laser methane detection system designed for natural gas pipeline inspections and industrial gas leak investigations. Featuring an integrated sampling pump and probe-based sampling configuration, it allows operators to collect gas samples from suspected leak locations and assess methane readings directly in the field.

Its portable design supports flexible operation across different inspection environments, making it suitable for routine pipeline surveys, targeted leak checks, and maintenance activities where convenient access to gas sampling points is important.

Integrated Pump and Probe-Based Sampling

The G10 incorporates an internal gas sampling pump to support active sampling during leak inspections. Used with a suitable sampling probe, the system helps operators investigate valves, pipe connections, utility installations, and other accessible locations where gas accumulation or leakage may be suspected.

An integrated filtration system supports the sampling process, while the probe configuration helps direct sampling toward selected inspection points. This design provides a practical solution for field technicians who need a portable instrument for systematic and targeted gas leak investigations.

Automatic Self-Calibration for Consistent Measurements

The G10 features a built-in gas cell reference that supports continuous self-calibration during operation. This function helps maintain measurement consistency and reduces the need for frequent manual calibration interventions, subject to the instrument's operating conditions and maintenance requirements.

Combined with laser-based sensing, the reference system supports reliable field measurements and helps operators evaluate potential methane leak indications during inspections.

Real-Time Gas Analysis and Flexible Readings

The G10 provides real-time measurement feedback to help operators assess changing gas concentrations during sampling. Its display supports concentration readings in ppm, %LEL, and %VOL, allowing users to review results in formats suited to different inspection and reporting needs.

The ability to assess gas readings at the inspection site helps streamline field workflows and supports timely decisions about whether a suspected leak requires further investigation.

TDLAS Technology for Selective Methane Detection

The G10 uses Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) to detect methane through its characteristic optical absorption properties. This laser-based approach supports selective methane measurement and is designed for gas leak inspection in natural gas infrastructure and industrial environments.

By combining selective sensing with active sampling, the G10 provides a practical approach to investigating suspected leaks where direct measurement at a specific location is required.
