GasFind IR
GasFindIR finds even small fugitive gas emissions quickly and easily.
It's Smart.
For the first time, GasFindIR- allows you to find VOC (volatile organic compound) gas leaks quickly and easily. Capable of rapidly scanning large areas and miles of piping, this highly specialized infrared camera delivers real-time thermal images of gas leaks. These gas leaks appear as "black smoke" onscreen when, in fact, they are fugitive gas emissions.
It's Innovative.
A truly revolutionary technology, GasFindIR inverts the physics of fugitive VOC gas leaks. What was once invisible is now clear and present- and recordable to any off-the-shelf video recorder for easy archiving, documenting or emailing.
It's Productive.
GasFindIR is also a real-time infrared camera, scanning at 30 Hz or 30 images per second. This greatly increases productivity by allowing workers to scan miles of piping from a moving vehicle or pan wide-angle for broad views of piping systems without concern for image distortion or smear.
Fugitive Emissions
–Losses (leaks) of HC product
(methane, propane, VOC’s)
UNINTENTIONAL FUGITIVES
– Normal wear and tear / damage
– Improper or incomplete assembly of components
– Inadequate material specification
–manufacturing defects
INTENTIONAL FUGITIVES
- Venting (tanks, controllers, comp. seals, stacks, etc.)
Purpose
– Increase production & reduce costs by recovering
lost gas
– CAPP Fugitive Emission Management BMP
– Increase operations Health & Safety
– Reduce GHG emissions / Carbon Credits
– Part of CPC E/E, Gas Star Program, and BIC
Initiative
Detection Technology
• GasfindIR - optical emission technology
– Infrared video camera with hydrocarbon/VOC filter
– Provides visible images of a HC gas emissions in real-time
Benefits:
• Rapid, accurate and safe detection
• Scan hard-to-reach components from a
distance
• Assessments performed without
interruption of operations
• Inspection times are minimal, which can
keep costs down.
• With exact leak source info, repairs are
less time consuming and less expensive.
• Cost-effectively scan hundreds of components simultaneously
