The Scout Flammable Gas Sensor for the Scout 137 Drone is a specialized drone-mounted device that detects and alerts operators to flammable gases in the environment, forming an essential part of the ScoutDI confined-space inspection ecosystem. Key features include real-time warnings for enhanced safety, a lifespan of over 15 years with low ownership costs, no need for field calibrations due to factory calibration and built-in self-testing, additional ambient temperature readings, and compliance with IEC 60079-29-1:2016, with ongoing certification for EN50271.
The sensor ensures accurate detection for methane and hydrogen across a wide range of environmental conditions. Other gases typically meet published tolerances, primarily under standard conditions (20˚C, 50% Relative Humidity). The sensor’s accuracy is validated against ISO 10156 standards.

The Gas Sensor is intended to be an additional safety measure, complementing existing safety protocols. It is not designed as a primary means for combustible gas or gas leak detection.
The Gas Sensor integrates with the Scout 137 Drone System, enhancing operational safety through:
