Diborane Gas Detector

$2,170.00

Product Summary

The PureAire Diborane Fixed Gas Detector is an essential safety system for facilities requiring continuous monitoring of diborane (B₂H₆) gas. Designed to work with a dedicated, renewable toxic gas sensor, the detector is calibrated to measure diborane in parts-per billion (ppb) and parts-per-million (ppm), providing accurate and real-time detection of even trace leaks.

Diborane is primarily used in semiconductor manufacturing, photovoltaic cell production, and other high-tech industries, where it serves as a dopant gas in processes like chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Due to its extreme toxicity and flammability, diborane must be carefully controlled and monitored in any facility where it is present.

PureAire’s sensors for diborane offer exceptional longevity—up to 8 years in standard cleanroom or controlled environments. These sensors are rechargeable on-site with electrolyte, which minimizes maintenance downtime and reduces long-term operational costs.

For semiconductor fabs and high-tech facilities working with diborane, PureAire provides a high-performance, low-maintenance gas detection system to safeguard personnel, processes, and infrastructure with confidence and precision.

Please note that because of the nature of this product, the lead time is typically 2-3 days but may be up to one week. We will make every effort to ship your order as soon as possible.

The Diborane Gas Detector from PureAire is a compact gas monitor designed to protect workers from exposure to toxic and corrosive gases in the workplace. It consists of a generic transmitter/controller connected to a dedicated, renewable diborane gas sensor that automatically inputs the gas and measurement range. Designed as a stand-alone monitor, the Diborane Gas Detector can also be connected to any programmable logic controller or SCADA system. PureAire also manufactures toxic gas detectors with a remote sensor.

The heart of the Diborane Gas Detector is the smart, renewable diborane sensor cell programmed with specific gas and measurement range information. When servicing the sensors, they can be recharged with fresh electrolyte and dynamically gas-calibrated in the maintenance shop away from the transmitter.

Cost-Effective, Reliable, and Low-Maintenance

Maximize your savings and safety with the PureAire Diborane Gas Detector. Offering the lowest annual maintenance costs of any gas monitoring system on the market, this detector is the perfect choice for companies looking to reduce operational expenses. PureAire’s renewable sensors can be easily recharged in the field with electrolyte at about 20% of the cost of traditional disposable sensors. With routine maintenance costs averaging just $70 per year, you can save hundreds of dollars annually compared to the high-cost alternatives.

Effortless, Stand-Alone Monitoring

The Diborane Gas Detector is designed for seamless, stand-alone operation. Simply mount it to the wall near the risk site, plug it into any 115VAC or 220VAC outlet, and you’re ready to start monitoring right away. The built-in horn and LED alarm indicators ensure that your team is quickly alerted to any hazardous condition, providing peace of mind.

With individual alarm and fault relays, you can easily connect remote alarms or controls for extra flexibility. Plus, the 4-20mA analog output allows for continuous data reporting to remote PLC and SCADA systems, enabling you to monitor conditions from any location.

24/7 Smart Supervision for Maximum Protection

Our Diborane Gas Detector is equipped with advanced “smart” circuitry that provides continuous supervision around the clock. If a system error occurs, the detector’s analog output and fault relay will immediately notify control room personnel, so you can act quickly and prevent potential issues.

The dedicated microcontroller built directly into the sensor allows for easy removal during routine calibration and maintenance. Calibration data is entered directly into the sensor and transferred back to the transmitter once the sensor is reconnected, ensuring optimal performance.
