INTRODUCTION
This project can be used to detect the LPG gas leakage. This project can be used in Industry where LPG gas is used. Or this project can be used in our home, because we use LPG gas in our day to day life for cooking purpose.
LPG leak detector model is a compact electronic device which detects the presence of LPG in the air. Gas leak detection is the detection of gas leaks with a sensor specially designed to identify the leaks. In order to detect gas leaks with traditional methods, the gas itself must either be in close proximity to the detector or within a pre-defined area. Outdoor environmental conditions such as changing wind directions and quick dispersion of a potential gas cloud, which can be found e.g. on an offshore platform, can result in undetected gas leaks, leading to extremely dangerous situations.
Gas is intentionally odorized so that the average person can perceive it at a concentration well below the explosive range. That odorant concentration is generally between 0.5 to 1.0 percent by volume or as local applicable codes dictate. Gas odor is a common and effective indication of a leak. A report of gas odor should be investigated immediately. If a leak is found, the migration pattern of the gas should be determined. If an immediate hazard is determined to exist, the hazard potential should be eliminated and the leak repaired immediately. Odor is not always totally reliable as an indicator of the presence or absence of gas leaks. For this reason all gas leak reports should be investigated using a leak detection instrument. Gas personnel should remember that the primary purpose of the gas odor is to provide a warning to the public, who do not have gas detection instruments.
