Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN) Detectors

Ensure worker safety and maintain operational compliance with our fixed and portable hydrogen cyanide detection systems, trusted in chemical, mining, and manufacturing industries.

HCN monitoring is typically performed using electrochemical sensors with high sensitivity to parts-per-million concentrations, ensuring fast and accurate detection. Regular calibration is essential to maintain reliability and compliance with occupational safety requirements.

Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is a highly toxic and flammable gas with a faint bitter almond odour, widely used in chemical production, mining, electroplating, and plastics manufacturing. It interferes with the body’s ability to use oxygen, making it extremely dangerous even at very low concentrations. Acute exposure can lead to headache, dizziness, nausea, and respiratory failure, while high levels can be fatal within minutes.
