Advancements in Portable Gas Leakage Detection Systems for Enhanced Safety in Gaseous Detector
摘要
The gain of gaseous detectors like GEM detectors depends upon the concentration of gas mixtures, temperature, and pressure inside the gas volume [1]. For this reason, it is important to know that the gas leakage from the detector can cause fluctuation in the pressure and temperature which can affect the gain of the detector. In this work, we present the development of a high-sensitivity gas sensor aimed at ensuring the operational integrity of gaseous detectors. The sensor is designed to detect minute variations in CO \(_2\) levels, allowing for precise leakage detection during detector operation. In addition to GEM, this sensor technology can be applied across a wide range of gaseous detectors used in particle physics experiments and other research fields. It can also be potentially used for safety purposes in industries. This technique can significantly enhance detector safety, providing real-time monitoring and early warning of potential gas leaks, thus ensuring the integrity and safety of experimental setups.
