Solvents, chemicals and other sources of flammable vapors and gases are present in many manufacturing, production and converting processes and act as the fuel in process fires or explosions. In most industrial processes, enough oxygen is present to support combustion. But even in inert or purged processes, a sudden accidental introduction of air can mix with process vapors to produce a ...

The 3-SAW array utilized in the TAP-GSC sampling system provides the SAWRHINO with a robust operational performance. For the PNN used, this was able to correctly identify 100% of the agents with no false alarms. No false alarms were reported …
Chemical Vapors. Chemical vapor sensors use the application of a thin film polymer across the delay line which selectively absorbs the gas or gases of interest. An array of such sensors with different polymeric coatings can be used to sense a large range of gases on a single sensor with resolution down to parts per trillion, allowing for the creation of a sensitive "lab on a chip." Biological ...
