Hydrogen Sulfide is a colorless chalcogenic hydride gas in nature having a bad & foul smell similar to a rotten egg. The gas is toxic in nature, inflammable, and acts as a hazard to the environment and public health. The inhalation of this toxic gas can result in eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches, dizziness, etc and when exposed for a prolonged period to high levels may lead to shock, coma, and death. The common sources include wastes from humans and animals, wastewater treatment plants, crude petroleum, volcanic eruptions, and hot springs.

Our products are fully compliant with RoHS standards. This means that our sensors are free from any toxic or hazardous materials that could pose a risk to human health or the environment.

What technology is being used in H2S Sensor?

The electrochemical method is widely considered to be one of the most effective ways to monitor the concentration of H2S in the atmosphere. This method involves feeding an air sample into a sensor that contains electrodes, a working electrode, a counter electrode, and an ion conductor.

In the electrochemical method of H2S monitoring, H2S reacts with the electrolyte in the sensor and becomes oxidized, resulting in the formation of water molecules and ions. These ions, in turn, generate an electrical current within the sensor that is directly proportional to the concentration of H2S in the environment.

H2S Sensor Calibration

Calibration is comparing the actual/ standard measurement with your instrument or device measurement. Calibrating the device or instrument helps in determining the accuracy of the instrument and measurement traceability. The sensor is exposed to H2S in the range of interest to calibrate the sensor accurately. NIST standard of gas cylinder is used as a reference for the target gas. The standard environmental conditions for sensor calibration used are 23 + 3oC temperature, 50 + 15% relative humidity, 0.9-1.1atm pressure and air velocity of 0.05m/s. The alteration in environmental conditions may affect the sensitivity of sensor but is easily compensated.
