Gas & Smoke detection for: Inaccessible areas Where ambient temperatures are too extreme for field devices, particularly point infrared & electrochemical based detectors Duct monitoring where high air velocities increase response time of diffusion based gas detectors Reliable & stable high sensitivity detection Reduced maintenance
Typical sampling system applications Monitoring Sealed Vessels their vents Monitoring Gas Turbines And Compressors Flammable gas, toxic & smoke ingress into HVAC ducts Safe Refuge Protection Monitoring For Hydrogen Sulphide In Drilling Areas Riser Caisson Monitoring Monitoring For Flammable Gases In Moonpool And Turrett Areas Of F.P.S.O.S
Negative Pressure
GDA (Instrument Air Driven Aspirator) GDAP (Pump Driven Aspirator) GD-SCDP Self Compensating Duct Probes GD-AutoDrain
GD-A Aspirators
Requires Instrument Air Can be used with any vendors smoke, toxic & flammable gas detectors Design reduces compression fittings, hence maintenance Modular design (up to 5 channels) Custom Built from standard parts IS low flow alarm monitors for line blockages Suitable for use in Zones 1 or 2 Sample line purge and calibration fail safe spring return switches for each channel
Retrofit Applications
Use when direct mounted detectors fail to perform Aspirator requires flow failure diagnosis for fail safe operation Utilises existing detector cabling to also perform flow failure diagnostics
GD-AP Aspirators
GD-Analyser
Old Aspirators
A Pre-Groveley Aspirator
Old systems had lots of compression fittings, which needed to be undone during maintenance. This often introduced minor leaks which reduced system performance. To change an eductor took up to two hours. Line purge and gas detector calibration/testing was a far more involved process.
GD-A Aspirators
Ingress HVAC monitoring from hazardous areas for: Smoke Hydrogen Sulphide Combustible Gas Multiple detectors can be pneumatically connected in series* Internally pre-wired to external junction boxes
* Detectors Connected In Series Cost reduction and design simplification. Some detection technologies irreversibly alter the chemical nature of the sample being monitored. e.g. catalytic, electrochemical and semiconductor sensors. Non-destructive measurement technologies should be used wherever possible (e.g. point IR, optical smoke). Only one destructive technology should be used per sample line with the device used at the end of the sample run.
For ducts with a greater width of 350mm Groveley Self-Compensating Duct Probe ensures a representative sample is taken from the whole width of the duct, thus reducing the chances of gas passing through the duct undetected
Heat trace tape is embedded into the leading edge of the SCDP and wired to an external junction box. Trace heating tape is self regulating and is designed to keep the SCDP above 10C, or another predetermined temperature. Consider using heated SCDPs when duct air temperature can drop below -10C.
GD-AutoDrain
For negative pressure systems (GD-A; GD-AP) Designed to remove limited amounts of water droplets from a GD-Aspirator sample line. Sample gas and water droplets enter the GD-AutoDrain assembly via a sample line catch pot assembly, here water and vapour separate. Water droplets drips into the seal leg catch pot, due to gravity. Water vapour not eliminated by the first stage separator should condense in the sample line filter. Normal auto-drains do not work with aspirators
Summary
Instrument Air, Pump or sample driven sampling systems Can be used with any vendors smoke, toxic & flammable gas detectors Design reduces compression fittings, hence maintenance Modular design (up to 5 channels) Custom Built from standard parts Self Compensating Duct Probes for representative sampling Each system is provided with a dedicated manual, including general assembly and electrical hook up and wiring details Suitable for use in hazardous areas
