Portable Odorant Detector for Pickling and Gas Distribution: Odorant Concentration Measurements

Portable Odorant Detector

In the realm of natural gas distribution, the detection of odorant concentration is not just a regulatory compliance issue—it’s a critical safety measure. Burgess Pipeline Services offers a state-of-the-art solution with its Portable Odorant Detector which offers a wide range electrochemical sensors designed for precision odorant concentration detection in natural gas pickling and gas distribution applications.


The Critical Role of Odorant Detection: Odorants are added to natural gas to make it detectable by smell, which is essential for identifying leaks.


Portable Odorant Detector: Our electrochemical sensors are engineered to meet the demands of the industry with features such as:


  • Detection Range:

    • Tetrahydrothiophene (THT): 0-10 or 0-100 ppm

    • tert-butyl mercaptan (TBM): 0-10, 0-100 or 0-500 ppm

    • Methanethiol: 0-10, 0-100 or 0-500 ppm

  • Principle: Utilizing electrochemistry for accurate detection.

  • Sensor Life: A robust lifespan of 2-3 years.

  • Modes: Built-in pump suction type, switchable to diffusion or combined modes for versatile applications.

  • Display: Real-time data on concentration, gas type, alarm status, and more.

  • Accuracy: ± 3% FS.

  • Response Time: 9 seconds to detect changes in gas levels.


Designed for the Toughest Environments: Our monitors are built to withstand extreme conditions, operating in temperatures from -4F to 140F and relative humidity of 10-95%. The IP68 protection level and durable case material ensure the device’s longevity and reliability in the field.


Data Management and Communication: With a standard Type-C interface for quick charging and a data storage capacity of over 100,000 entries, our sensors are equipped for comprehensive data management and easy communication.


Portable Odorant Detector offer essential odorant detection technology for natural gas applications. With their advanced features, robust design, and compliance with safety standards, they are an indispensable tool for ensuring the safety and integrity of natural gas distribution systems.
