MEK Detectors

Safeguard your operations and workforce from MEK vapour hazards with robust detection systems designed for industrial use.

Detection is typically achieved with photoionisation detectors (PID) or infrared (IR) sensors, both offering rapid response and accurate monitoring of MEK vapours. Many detectors integrate with alarm systems, ventilation controls, and shutdown mechanisms for comprehensive risk management.

Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK, also known as Butanone) is a volatile organic compound (VOC) widely used as a solvent in paints, adhesives, coatings, and chemical processing. Its high flammability and ability to form explosive vapours at room temperature make reliable gas detection critical for workplace safety.
