Electrochemical sensors are widely used for oxygen and many toxic gases. Catalytic bead and infrared sensors are common choices for combustible gases, while semiconductor sensors are used in some leak detection and alarm applications. PID sensors are used for many VOC applications, and laser-based methods can be suitable for specific methane measurements. The correct choice depends on the gas, range, oxygen level, humidity, contaminants, response requirements, and maintenance plan.
