About Gas Sniffer
Gas sniffers are portable electronic detectors that sense the presence of specific gases at very low concentrations.
In leak detection, we use hydrogen-specific sniffers for tracer gas testing and combustible gas detectors for natural gas or propane leak surveys.
These instruments provide both audible and visual feedback that intensifies as the gas concentration increases, allowing the technician to home in on the exact leak point.
Modern gas sniffers have semiconductor or electrochemical sensors that respond rapidly and are not fooled by common interfering substances.
