The flammable gas detector uses the latest generation of low-power, high-interference-resistant carrier-catalyzed sensors. It forms a detection bridge with two fixed resistors. When the air contains flammable gas diffusing onto the surface of the detecting sensor, the flameless combustion is rapidly performed under the action of the catalyst on the surface of the sensor, and the reaction heat is generated to increase the resistance of the platinum wire of the sensor, and the detection bridge outputs a differential pressure signal. The magnitude of this voltage signal is proportional to the concentration of flammable gas. After being amplified, it performs voltage and current conversion and converts the percentage (% LEL) within the lower limit of the flammable gas explosion into a 4-20 mA standard signal output.
