Iso Butyl Alcohol (C4H10O) Detectors

Protect staff and maintain safe working conditions with our fixed and portable iso-butyl alcohol detection systems, designed for chemical, coatings, and pharmaceutical applications.

Detection is commonly achieved using electrochemical or photoionisation (PID) sensors, which provide sensitivity to low parts-per-million concentrations. These systems offer rapid response times and can be integrated with alarms or control systems to ensure compliance and safety. Routine calibration supports long-term accuracy.

Iso-butyl alcohol (IBA, C₄H₁₀O) is a flammable solvent used in the production of coatings, varnishes, chemical intermediates, and pharmaceuticals. It has a strong odour and, at elevated concentrations, can cause eye and respiratory irritation, dizziness, and central nervous system effects. In industrial environments, uncontrolled vapour release presents both health hazards and fire risks, making accurate detection essential.
