Abstract
The results of development of an autonomous methane detector in a dynamic measurement mode are presented. Industrial catalytic sensor was used as a sensitive element. To prevent burnout of the catalytic sensor microheater which often occurs during pulsed heating, the special form of heating pulse has been developed. The proposed dynamic mode of the sensor heating provides the measurements with low power consumption and the required level of safety in the measurement range of pre-explosive methane concentrations from 0.1 to 2 vol.%. Based on the analysis of the obtained results, the estimation of autonomous operating time of the detector is given.
