Leaks in industrial gas systems can range from almost unnoticeable to disruptive and dangerous disturbances. Locating a leak in compressed air, gas, and vacuum systems can be challenging and time-consuming but quite necessary if the leak is to be repaired. Several gas detectors are available, using stationery and mobile or hand-held equipment to search for escaping emissions. In extreme cases, leaking gases may be toxic, with pressurized gases that include ammonia, chlorine, nitrogen oxide, and sulfur oxide that must be detected and monitored. In less severe cases, escaping gases such as oxygen (O2) may be safe to an operating environment, but a leak or leaks represent an ongoing expense in the loss of a resource.
Gas leaks can be found in numerous ways, often by pressure testing a gas storage unit or interconnecting hose to enable gas sensors to measure beyond their minimum detection limits. Numerous types of gas detectors, such as electrochemical sensors, infrared (IR) sensors, semiconductor

Electrical safety testing is an essential part of quality control for almost all electronic products. Good grounding is needed to prevent costly damage to an electronic product as well as to avoid service interruptions and potentially dangerous operating conditions to a user. Effective grounding systems support the use of safety components such as protection relays and help protect sensitive electronic components from over-voltage conditions that can occur from manufacturing errors such as poor solder joints or even performance degradation that can occur from faulty insulation. Establishing a safe electrical environment involves ensuring that the resistance of the electrical ground path is suitably low to satisfy the requirements of applicable electrical safety standards, such as those set forth by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). It also involves measurements capable of determining an electronic product’s behavior under adverse conditions, such as voltage surges,
