L-TEK P100

The L-TEK P100 utilises TDLAS technology to monitor methane and methane-containing gas concentrations in a target area by leveraging the specific absorption characteristics of methane at certain laser wavelengths. This portable detector is commonly used for inspecting methane in industries such as petroleum, chemical processing, and urban gas. By enabling long-distance, non-contact measurement, it ensures operator safety in high-risk environments unlike traditional monitors. Its compact design and <1 second response time makes it easy for inspectors to carry and enhances detection efficiency unlike other devices.

L-TEK P100 Smart Advantages

• Long-distance monitoring – Lasers enable long-distance gas leakage monitoring by detecting leaks directly, unlike traditional passive methods that rely on gas diffusion into the detector.
• Low maintenance cost – Along with the durability of the components, L-TEK P100 uses non-contact measurement, preventing poisoning,  which extends product life by 5-10 times and lowers maintenance costs.
• High accuracy, no false alarms – The single-mode laser in L-TEK P100 precisely targets methane’s infra-red gas absorption line, avoiding interference from other gases and environmental conditions. This ensures accurate leak measurement and eliminates false alarms, unlike IR camera technologies
• Fast response time – When it comes to detecting gas, response time is crucial. L-TEK P100 offers a millisecond response time, which is 100 times faster than catalytic combustion and electrochemical sensors, so identifying and quantifying leaks takes seconds not minutes. This makes laser gas sensors  100x more efficient than other combustible gas sensors.
• Long battery life – Identifying leaks shouldn’t have to stop after a few hours when a device’s battery dies. The L-Tek P100 lasts for nearly a whole shift. This means less stoppages and less devices are required as back-up unlike similar non-contact methane measurement products.

How It Works?

TDLAS (Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) technology utilises the characteristics of target gas molecules absorbing specific wavelengths of laser light intensity, which can measure the concentration of methane gas.
