Ensure Safety and Compliance with Prosense Marine and Offshore Certified Gas Detection Systems

In the marine industry, safety is paramount, especially when it comes to hazardous gases that can accumulate in confined spaces aboard ships, offshore rigs, and marine vessels. Extreme weather conditions, corrosive saltwater, and high humidity levels require equipment that can withstand these harsh settings. Our state-of-the-art PQ Series gas detectors and DPX Series gas control panels are specifically designed to meet the rigorous standards required for these challenging conditions. With advanced technology and robust construction, Prosense gas detection systems provide reliable and accurate gas detection, ensuring the safety of your crew, assets, and offshore operations from dangerous gas leaks.

Key Features & Benefits

1. Engineered for Marine Environments
   • Built with marine-grade materials, the PQ Series and DPX Series are engineered to resist corrosion, saltwater, and high-humidity environments. Its rugged design ensures that your gas detection system will continue to function in even the most challenging maritime conditions. The PQ Series detectors and DPX Series gas control panels have been specifically designed to excel in the unique challenges posed by marine environments, including:
     • Resistance to corrosion, particularly from saltwater exposure
     • Durability in extreme weather conditions with wide temperature tolerance
     • Protection against humidity and moisture, ensuring consistent performance

Whether installed in the engine room, cargo holds, or confined spaces, the PQ Series delivers top-notch reliability and longevity. This versatility ensures comprehensive protection for crew members and assets.

1. Advanced Range of Gas Detection Capabilities
   • With the PQ Series, you can monitor a variety of gases that pose a risk to marine operations, such as:
     • Flammable gases (methane, propane, etc.)
     • Toxic gases (carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide)
     • Oxygen deficiency, critical for confined space safety

The system’s flexible sensor design ensures that it can be tailored to monitor the gases most relevant to your vessel’s operational needs.

1. Compliance with Strict International Marine Standards
   • Marine safety regulations require the highest standards for gas detection systems. PQ Series detectors and DPX Series control panels comply with global standards and are certified by Bureau Veritas, ensuring the safe and compliant operation of your operations:
     • ATEX and IECEx certifications for explosive environments
     • MED (Marine Equipment Directive) approval
     • BV Type approval (Steel Ships, Offshore Units, Naval Ships and Yachts)
2. Simple Installation and Low Maintenance
   • Ease of use is critical for any marine system. The PQ Series is designed to minimize installation hassle and maintenance needs, especially in confined or difficult-to-reach areas of ships and offshore platforms.
     • Compact and modular design allows for installation in tight spaces, such as engine rooms or bunkers
     • Pre-calibrated sensors reduce the need for ongoing adjustments
     • Self-diagnosing capabilities reduce the need for frequent maintenance, lowering maintenance costs and increasing uptime
     • Remote monitoring capabilities, allowing integration with existing ship systems
3. Robust Alarm System for Immediate Response
4. o PQ Series detectors and DPX Series gas control panels provide early warning of dangerous gas concentrations, giving crews enough time to respond to potential hazards. Their high-sensitivity sensors enable rapid detection of low-level leaks and gas spikes, making them suitable for a variety of maritime operations. PQ Series gas detectors, combined with DPX Series control panels, feature a sophisticated alarm system designed to alert crews to the first signs of gas leaks:
   • Bright visual indicators for immediate awareness
   • Multiple alarm levels for flexible response strategies
   • Easy integration into detection area and centrally located warning devices
   • Remote alarm systems that integrate with existing vessel control and monitoring setups, enabling faster reaction times

Thanks to PROCell intelligent sensor technology, the PQ Series minimizes false alarms, reducing unnecessary interruptions to operations while still maintaining a high level of safety.

1. Integration with Vessel Systems
   • The PQ Series seamlessly integrates with your ship’s existing control systems, offering real-time monitoring from the bridge or control room. Its data logging features ensure a full record of gas levels over time, allowing for post-incident analysis or regulatory compliance reporting.

Applications for the Prosense PQ and DPX Series

1. Cargo Ships & Tankers
   • The PQ Series ensures safety in confined spaces like cargo holds, where flammable or toxic gases could accumulate, reducing the risk of accidents during cargo operations. DPX Series enables quick and easy integration of alarms and alerts into the control system.
2. Offshore Platforms & Rigs
   • On offshore rigs, the PQ and DPX Series provide 24/7 gas detection, helping to prevent hazardous incidents related to drilling, oil extraction, and fuel storage.
3. Cruise Ships & Passenger Vessels
   • In large passenger vessels, monitoring air quality and detecting dangerous gases is critical for ensuring the safety of crew and passengers alike. The PQ and DPX Series deliver dependable protection in critical areas such as kitchens, engine rooms, and waste treatment facilities.
4. Naval Ships
   • Naval ships, with their complex systems and operational needs, require gas detection systems that are both versatile and durable. Prosense offers high-performance detection systems to prevent potential gas-related risks in critical mission areas with its PQ and DPX Series.
