How Would You Like To Detect A Methane Gas Leak From 500ft Away By Just Pointing A “Laser Gun”?

The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector Is A Portable Methane Detection Device Which Revolutionizes The Way Methane Gas Leaks Can Be Detected … All You Need Do Is Point, Shoot and Detect … Safer, Faster and Pinpoint Accurate Methane Gas Detection Can Now Be Yours!

Make no mistake - methane gas is a killer. You really don’t want to be anywhere in the vicinity when it leaks and blows up. But I probably don’t need to tell you this because if you work in

• the oil, gas or petrochemical industries
• a public utility company
• demolition and construction
• a fire department
• a police department
• a law enforcement agency such as Homeland security, the FBI or the DEA

you’ll know what I’m talking about. A discharge of methane gas poses a serious explosive danger.

As you also know, there are problems identifying these leaks. You obviously don’t want to risk being near a methane gas explosion so how can you judge if there’s something to concern you without a close inspection? And how do you establish if gas is escaping in an area that’s hard to reach such as a culvert, a piping shaft, somewhere high overhead or even in a locked room?

And even if you confirm a methane gas leak in this type of situation, how do you pinpoint its exact location? This part of the detection process can waste valuable time while the level of danger steadily increases.

When these problems came to my attention at BPA, I realized that there was a gap in the market. There was a clear need for a methane gas detector that is:

1. Lightweight
2. Portable
3. Fast
4. Accurate
5. Easy to operate
6. Usable at a safe distance from the suspected leak

I could see that these were demanding but essential requirements. My team and I are experts and between us have built a number of successful, world-class businesses based on scientific products that meet specific needs, but I knew that we would have a tough time researching and finding the right gas detector. But I also realized that if we could find a detector that matched these criteria, we would have a product that you would recognize immediately as unique and indispensable.

So we persisted, and I am delighted to say that we were successful! I am now proud to introduce the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector - the first of its kind, a truly original piece of equipment that detects methane gas through the use of sophisticated laser technology.

 

BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector Similar in appearance to a radar gun, the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector is actually a handheld laser gun.  Simple to use, just flip it on, aim and pull the trigger.  Effective from up to 500 feet away, it even works through glass and water!  That means, you get quick accurate results - rain or shine.  Personnel can ride along side of a pipeline with the gun aimed through the window... with the windows rolled up, in the pouring rain! Personnel can stand safely away while detecting methane gas through what would otherwise be time consuming obstacles: fences locked doors ditches guard dogs pipes running too high to reach

Readings can be saved to the SD memory card and later downloaded to a computer for record keeping.

Oil, gas and petrochemical

If you work in the oil, gas or petrochemical business and you have on-site responsibilities at plants or refineries, you’ll have methane gas detectors in place. But how flexible are these systems? Can you establish the presence of a leak without making contact with the gas, and can you determine the exact place in an elevated or hard-to-reach transmission pipe where the methane may be escaping? And just as important, can you identify that methane is present when there are other gases in the area? The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector can do all this.

But the big question is, how do you get the guys upstairs to sign off on this new system?  Here are 3 answers... money, liability and public image. 

Money.  Add up all your costs associated with your current FID portable methane detectors.  Include costs of storing and handling your hydrogen, equipment maintenance, calibration and labor time.  Take this number and multiply it by the expected  lifetime of your FID equipment.  Now compare that number to the one time cost of the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector and its associated costs including: drastically reduced labor, $0 maintenance , $0 calibration, $0 storing hydrogen and $0 handling hydrogen.

Liability.  Your company can capitalize on the dramatic difference in employee safety as well as environmental responsibility.  Upgrading from your old system to a significantly safer,  system that removes personnel several hundred feet away from hazardous areas will save immeasurable cost in liability.

Public Image.  Upgrading to the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector gives your company a more effective, accurate and faster way to protect the environment from from what many scientists currently believe to be the most harmful greenhouse gas.  A move to laser methane gas detection is a great reason to initiate a press release demonstrating the proactive approach your company has toward global warming.

Sewage

Sewage treatment works are notorious for producing methane, and although the gas is controlled under normal circumstances from day to day, a situation may occur that requires speedy and effective detection and measurement. The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector provides a response that is twenty times faster than standard FID technology. The SA3C06A model also has an LCD and graph display, and built-in memory for data storage. In this way, you can check recent readings, monitor them for changes, and store them in the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector or on an SD memory card.

Police, Fire Department and Public Utility

We have all heard the news reports about accidents and tragedies in buildings, apartments and houses when natural gas (which consists mainly of methane) has leaked and exploded. These leaks have come from pipes located in shafts, ceilings, under floors, and from around gas boilers. All of these are areas that are difficult to access and extremely dangerous when there is methane present. And added to the risk of an explosion is the possibility of asphyxia because methane drives out the oxygen in an enclosed space and causes death by suffocation.

If you are an employee of the fire department, the police or a public utility company, and you are alerted to such a leak, you need to discover it without putting yourself and your colleagues in harm’s way. This is far easier said than done when you have to struggle with confined spaces where the build-up of methane can be lethal.

The portable and long-range features of the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector mean that you can check pipes for leaks by using nearby inspection holes and vents. The detector is shaped like a gun. Place it in the hole or vent and point it to where you believe the methane emissions are coming from.  The laser provides a visible red dot, much like a laser pointer, that shows exactly where the gun is aimed.  And don't worry, the laser does not get hot or pose any danger in methane or any other chemicals.  The range of the detector – up to 500ft – also gives you the flexibility to use it in cramped areas where pipes may run beneath or alongside a series of rooms.

Locked rooms

There is another great characteristic of the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector - its ability to identify methane in a room that is locked or sealed. I believe that this is a fantastic step forward for safety. All you do is aim the Detector into the room through a convenient window - the glass does not inhibit the function of the Detector in any way.

The scope for this use of the Detector is immense. Meth labs, for instance, are generally in rooms with locked doors and sealed windows (so that the smell of the drug as it “cooks” is not given away). If you are a law enforcement officer tasked with identifying such labs, you don’t want to burst into the room – the risks are too grave. Instead, you want to find out as much as you can before you proceed. This is where the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector can help you. Simply point it into the room through the sealed window.

Closed vehicle

The BPA Laser Methane Detector is not affected by glass or rain water.  This means, of course, that you can also use the Detector in a closed vehicle. Sit in your car or van and just train the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector through your windscreen and onto the area that you wish to test and stay up to 500 feet away from the source of danger.

Current users of the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector have been known to check miles of pipeline by sitting in their utility truck and slowly rolling along side the pipeline with the laser gun aimed through the side window.  This process is performed comfortably day or night, rain or shine, in hot or cold weather with the truck windows closed!

Imagine the labor time and liability this saves compared to the old FID way of checking for gas leaks!

Demolition and construction

In the demolition and construction industry, you often face unexpected difficulties. That wall you have just torn down, for example, might reveal gas pipes that aren’t on the plans.

The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector will let you know if you can proceed with safety. What’s more, the Detector is not a complex piece of equipment that you have to waste time assembling. It is a lightweight, compact single gun unit that does not need a separate black box or battery. It is a self-sufficient unit that is quick and uncomplicated.

Point and Click Design

This pick-up-and-point design is crucial. The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector is not some clumsy and mysterious piece of apparatus that can be handled only by a highly qualified expert. It is a straightforward tool – although a vitally important and useful tool – that should be part of your standard hardware.

The Problem-Solver

I appreciate that my enthusiasm for the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector may sound to you like sales hype. But the truth is that I am excited by this product because it is the first of its kind – an innovative solution to the problems of methane gas detection. Problem: I understand that the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector works long range, can access hard-to-reach areas, and identify methane but how do I actually pinpoint the leak? Solution: The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector works by means of a point-and-shoot laser beam. This beam not only registers the presence of methane but can show you exactly where the gas is escaping. Once you know this, you can take remedial action and save lives. Problem: If the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector is point-and-shoot, then how heavy is it? I don’t want my hand to shake when I hold it – this is bound to affect accuracy. Solution: The BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector weighs just three pounds and has a comfortable grip with a trigger mechanism. Problem: How big is the Detector? Solution: You’ll be able to fit the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector into a ten inch vent. Problem: How long does the Detector take to do its job? I’d like to know that I can find a leak without delay. Solution: You can receive a response from the BPA Laser Methane Gas Detector as fast as 0.1 of a second. You’ll also find that you don’t need to spend time setting up the Detector. Problem: What if the Detector’s power source fails? Solution: The rechargeable battery lasts for an hour and a half of continuous use. And if it shows signs of failing, you needn’t worry. We supply a spare battery as part of the inclusive accessory pack. Problem: Once I have a reading, will I be able to understand it? Solution: Yes, without a doubt. The basic model – the SA3C05A – has an LED visual output and an audible alarm; our other model – the SA3C06A – includes an LCD and graph display.
