Isopropanol (C3H8O) Detectors

Safeguard staff and processes with our fixed and portable isopropanol detectors, trusted across cleaning, electronics, and pharmaceutical applications.

Detection is typically achieved using photoionisation (PID) or catalytic bead sensors, capable of responding to both low ppm concentrations and %LEL levels. Detectors can be integrated into alarm and shutdown systems, and regular calibration ensures compliance and accuracy in safety-critical environments.

Isopropanol (IPA, C₃H₈O), also known as iso-propyl alcohol, is a flammable solvent widely used in laboratories, electronics manufacturing, surface cleaning, and pharmaceutical production. Its vapours readily form explosive mixtures with air, and exposure to elevated concentrations can cause eye and respiratory irritation, dizziness, and central nervous system effects. Reliable detection is critical to protecting workers and preventing ignition risks.
