MethaneMapper On Airpeak

Versions

• Standalone
• Integrated Both versions are the same size and weigh approximately 330g.

Integrated version offers real-time visual gas sensing on a map: It displays the type, location, and intensity to the pilot of the gas on the following platforms:

• DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise – 35 minutes estimated flight time.
• DJI Matrice 300 and 350 – 35 minutes estimated flight time.
• Sony Airpeak – 20 minutes estimated flight time.
• Watts Prism Sky – 30 minutes estimated flight time.
• Arcsky X55 – 240 minutes estimated flight time.

Data Logging:

Both Standalone and Integrated versions record GPS, time, and data for 14 different gases onto an SD card.

Data Conversion: 

Data collected on the SD card can be converted to a KML format for free at MethaneMapper.com. Please note that this service will eventually become a paid service, but for early adopters, we can provide a free license.

Sensor Array Features:

• It can detect 14 different gases with one factory calibration, eliminating the need for field calibration.
• The sensor array doesn’t drift, decay, and requires no maintenance over its lifetime.
•  The sensor array is equipped with a hydrocarbon sniffer and a Tuned Laser Diode (TDLAS).

Gas detection accuracy for sniffer sensor:

• Butane: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Ethane: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Hydrogen: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Isobutane: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Isobutylene: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Isopropanol: 0-100% LEL, ±10% LEL.
• Methane: 0-100% LEL, ±3% LEL.
• Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK): 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Octane: 0-100% LEL, ±12% LEL.
• Pentane: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Propane: 0-100% LEL, ±6% LEL.
• Propylene: 0-100% LEL, ±5% LEL.
• Toluene: 0-100% LEL, ±12% LEL.
• Xylene: 0-100% LEL, ±12% LEL.

Features of the TDLAS sensor:

• Long-distance detection: Optimal flight height is 100 feet AGL.
• Anti-cross interference: Specific laser detection reacts only to methane gas, unaffected by environmental conditions.
• Resolution of 1 ppm·m with ±10% @ 1000 ppm·m accuracy.
• Tuned Laser Diode: Near-infrared (1653nm) laser safety class Class I.
