Introduction

Hesai Drone-mounted Remote Methane Leak Detector is an ultralight and highly sensitive module that utilizes an infrared laser to remotely detect methane leaks. It can be mounted on the drones, vehicles, and ships for applications such as pipeline survey, residential area detection, etc.

The detector measures the methane concentration by emitting an infrared laser and receiving the laser reflection. The reading is expressed by a methane column density (ppm*m). It is the integral of the methane concentration (ppm) and the distance (m) on the optical path.

Installation Guide

Installation Notice

Prior to installing the detector, please read the notes carefully to ensure safe and appropriate usage:

  1. Supply the detector as required (DC 7~12 V).
  2. Provide good heat dissipation to the laser.
  3. Pay attention to static electricity. Please release the body static electricity or wear antistatic bracelet before the installation.
  4. Do not weld/replace any component unless it is recognized by Hesai.
  5. Do not unplug the laser fiber. Do not bend the fiber even at a small angle.
  6. Do not attempt to remove any circuit boards unless it is recognized by Hesai.
  7. Do not use the PCB of detector A on detector B.
  8. Do not disassemble or repair the device on your own accord. For repairs and maintenance inquiries, please contact an authorized Hesai Technologies service personnel.
  9. It is recommended that the length of the external cable should not exceed 3m.
Mechanical Installation

There are two mechanical mounting holes on the top of the detector for the horizontal installation, and four mechanical mounting holes at the back of the detector for the vertical installation. The mechanical drawing of the detector is shown below.
