<strong>Gas</strong> Detection<br />

<strong>Gas</strong> <strong>Monitoring</strong> Locations – HPM cabinet exhaust:<br />

• <strong>Gas</strong> cabinets<br />

• VMBs<br />

• <strong>Gas</strong> isolation boxes (GIBs) / <strong>Gas</strong> Pods<br />

• Tool cabinet gas box<br />

• Vacuum pump housings<br />

• Any exhausted enclosure containing un-welded fittings of HPM gas.<br />

• Sensor placements (diffusion or extractive) should be located up in the<br />

exhaust duct (not inside the cabinet) to consider mixing and duct airflow<br />

behavior – to ensure ideal gas leak detection.<br />

▫<br />

▫<br />

If possible – locate sensor 4 duct diameters downstream from the source<br />

cabinet.<br />

Locations should be upstream (below) any isolating mechanical blast gate (as<br />

should exhaust ventilation differential Pressure or airflow sensors).<br />

• Extractive sample tubing should extend at least 2” into the exhaust duct.<br />
