General Description:
The NAP-66A Gas Sensor is a low–cost Catalytic Flammable Gas Sensor designed for the detection and measurement of Propane, Butane, and LPG vapours in the range 0-50% LEL.
Developed primarily for use in Residential Gas Detectors, the NAP-66A has also been found to be useful in a wide variety of applications where reliable detection of gas or fuel leaks and other gas hazards is required at low cost.
The NAP-66A uses the superior catalytic “pellistor” detection principle often used in high quality Industrial Gas Detectors. It hence has many benefits over other low cost gas sensor types.
