Gas Sensor Market Trends
-
Emergence for gas sensors in an HVAC system
By eliminating contaminants from the surroundings through adequate ventilation and pressurization, HVAC systems provide clean, fresh indoor air. These systems are being used in refineries, the oil and gas sector, and other industries. These industries use methods that move poisonous or flammable materials. Gas sensors are therefore increasingly being employed in HVAC systems in all major sectors that include the presence of flammable gases and poisonous components to detect and evaluate the number of dangerous compounds present in the environment.
Gas Sensor Market Segment Insights:
Gas Sensor Technology Insights
The market segmentation, based on Technology, includes Electrochemical, Photoionization Detectors, Solid State/Metal Oxide semiconductors, Catalytic, Infrared, and Laser. The Electrochemical segment holds the majority share in 2021 of the market.
