Preparation
Select the appropriate sensor type based on the power plant's requirements (e.g., electrochemical sensor for carbon monoxide, catalytic combustion sensor for hydrogen).
Check the sensor's expiration date and initial condition to ensure it is undamaged or aged.
Installation Location Selection
Prioritize installation inside battery packs, energy storage systems, or areas where gases tend to accumulate (e.g., the top of enclosed spaces).
Avoid installation near ventilation openings, direct sunlight, or high temperatures to prevent interference with monitoring results.
Power Connection
Connect the detector to a stable power source using the included power cord, ensuring the voltage meets equipment requirements (e.g., 24V DC).
Check that the power indicator light is on to confirm normal power supply.
Configure Parameters
Set alarm thresholds (e.g., trigger an alarm when hydrogen concentration ≥ 1% VOL) via the configuration software or device buttons.
Select the alarm method (e.g., local audible and visual alarm, remote SMS notification) and test the signal transmission function.
Initiate Calibration
Perform zero-point and range calibration of the sensor using a standard gas (e.g., 1% VOL hydrogen).
Maintain a stable environment during calibration to avoid airflow or temperature fluctuations affecting the results.
Gas Monitoring
After activating the detector, observe whether the real-time concentration display is stable.
Regularly record data, analyze gas concentration trends, and identify potential risks in advance.
Alarm Response
Upon triggering an alarm, immediately activate the emergency plan:
Activate the ventilation system to reduce gas concentration.
Stop battery charging and discharging and disconnect the power supply.
Evacuate personnel and inspect for leak sources.
After confirming safety, reset the detector and return it to service.
Regular Inspection and Maintenance
Monthly Inspection: Clean dust from the detector surface and check sensor sensitivity.
Quarterly Calibration: Verify measurement accuracy using standard gas; replace the sensor if necessary.
Annual Comprehensive Maintenance: Check circuit connections, explosion-proof performance, and software version updates.
