We are pleased that the Põhja thermal power plant, located in the VKG Kohtla-Järve industrial area, is now equipped with a smart and autonomous gas leak detection system by Ambetronics supplied by us. The goal of the system is to improve industrial safety, reduce risks, and keep critical infrastructure under control.
The battery-powered methane and H₂S sensors from Ambetronics raise gas safety in energy production to a new level — hazards are detected early and important information reaches the responsible personnel quickly.
Key advantages of the battery-powered methane and H₂S sensors:
- full autonomy — sensors are completely wireless and do not require cabling or a permanent power connection;
- the system supports both radio communication and GSM connectivity;
- an innovative solution particularly suitable for complex industrial facilities where installing traditional cabling would be difficult or expensive.
How does the gas leak detection system work?
- methane or H₂S leaks are detected in real time;
- a visual and audible alarm is activated on sitel;
- the responsible person receives an SMS notification indicating the leak location and the detected gas concentration;
- all alarm events are collected in the facility’s central alarm management system.
The installation of the gas leak detection system at VKG was carried out by our trusted partner, the G4S East Region branch.
