Measuring toxic sulfur compounds to prevent corrosion, odor, and safety hazards.
A sulfide sensor measures the concentration of sulfide species, primarily hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) or sulfide ions (S²⁻), in water or process environments. Sulfide formation is commonly associated with anaerobic conditions and poses serious risks to human safety, infrastructure, and ecosystems.
Sulfide sensors detect sulfur compounds using electrochemical or optical techniques. The sensing element selectively reacts with sulfide species, generating a signal proportional to the sulfide concentration present.
The measured value directly represents the concentration of sulfide or hydrogen sulfide present.
Sulfide trends indirectly indicate anaerobic conditions, corrosion risk in pipelines, odor generation potential, and immediate safety hazards to personnel.
With Industrial IoT integration, sulfide sensors enable early detection of hazardous conditions, automated odor and corrosion control, real-time safety alerts, and compliance-focused infrastructure monitoring.
The Sulfide Sensor is a frontline safety instrument. By detecting toxic sulfur compounds early, it protects workers, infrastructure, and the environment from invisible but severe hazards.
