Detectable Gases

Remote laser survey for methane; path-integrated measurement in ppm·m.



Product Specifications
  • Next-Generation 30-Metre Remote Methane Screening
    Using TDLAS technology, the LaserMethane Smart detects methane leaks up to 30 metres away in only 0.1 seconds. The non-contact measurement principle enables rapid scanning of difficult-to-access and hazardous points while protecting operator safety.

  • Methane-Selective, Stable, and Rapid Measurement
    The system continuously monitors the laser wavelength via an internal gas cell, supporting measurement stability. With a 1–50,000 ppm×m measuring range and high-speed response, it substantially accelerates daily leak screening in natural gas distribution networks.

  • Leak Rate Estimation and Digital Logging with LeakFinder
    The Bluetooth-enabled model transfers measurement data and GPS coordinates into the mobile workflow via the LeakFinder app. Pinpointing leaks, logging records, and evaluating emission rates on site can be unified into a single digital process.

  • 500 Grams, Field Freedom with Standard AA Batteries
    Weighing approximately 500 g including batteries, the instrument operates on four standard Ni-MH AA rechargeable batteries. Minimising reliance on dedicated battery packs, this configuration provides procurement and handling convenience for busy field crews.

  • Standard AA Battery System

    Measurement and Standards Approach
    Instrument selection for methane/natural gas leak detection; walking survey, remote optical survey, vehicle-mounted mobile survey, gas selectivity, sensitivity, response time, and hazardous area classification must be evaluated jointly. For products utilising TDLAS or IR technology, current manufacturer performance, safety, and field operating documentation should serve as the baseline. Specific certification or regulatory compliance must be verified independently on a product/model basis.
