Ammonia (NH₃) is a colorless gas with a pungent odor, widely used in refrigeration, fertilizer production, and industrial processing. While efficient, ammonia is hazardous. Low-level exposure causes eye, skin, and respiratory irritation, while higher concentrations can lead to severe burns and life-threatening conditions. That’s why using an advanced ammonia gas detector like the E2618-NH3-P is vital for protecting workers and ensuring compliance.
A carbon dioxide detector beeping can mean different things rising CO₂ levels, sensor malfunction, or a low battery alert. Placement is also crucial. Install detectors at breathing height, away from vents, doors, or windows, for the most accurate monitoring. Understanding these alarms allows facility operators to act immediately, preventing risks from escalating.
Ammonia gas is harmful. Even short-term exposure can cause coughing, chest tightness, nausea, and eye irritation. High concentrations may lead to lung damage, chemical burns, or even death. Facilities that use ammonia in refrigeration, chemical processes, or pharmaceuticals must have ammonia gas detectors installed to continuously monitor leaks and protect staff.
In laboratories, ammonia is often tested using the Nessler’s reagent test, which changes color in the presence of ammonia. However, for industrial and commercial settings, continuous monitoring through electronic ammonia gas detectors like the Evikon E2618-NH3-P is the practical choice. These sensors provide accurate, real-time readings that manual chemical tests cannot match.
Ammonia is widely used as a refrigerant in the UAE and GCC due to its efficiency and low environmental impact. But the region’s extreme heat places massive strain on refrigeration and cooling systems, increasing the risk of leaks. Hotels, cold storage facilities, district cooling plants, and chemical industries rely heavily on ammonia gas detection for safety. Civil defense and municipal codes also require certified detectors to safeguard workers and the public.
