Can we use oxygen sensors to mine copper mines?

A long time ago, bronze bells and tripods were widely used in sacrifices. Such as the Simuwu Ding in the late Shang Dynasty. The raw material of bronze is copper ore. Usually copper sulfide or a mixture of oxides and other minerals. It reacts with sulfuric acid to produce blue-green copper sulfate. Natural copper minerals are available in a variety of colors.

 

The world's proven copper reserves exceed 600 million tons, and Chile's copper reserves account for about one-third of the world's reserves. It is the country with the most reserves in the world. We will now have more than half of our copper used in the power and telecommunications industries, and copper mines are cheaper than silver mines

 

Copper mining produces some toxic gases. The toxic gases produced by copper mining mainly come from mine blasting, spontaneous combustion of minerals and exhaust gas from mining equipment. In the event of a fire in a copper mine. Whether it is spontaneous combustion of minerals or man-made causes, fires will produce a certain amount of toxic gases. Such as carbon monoxide, sulfide, nitride, etc. Personal safety of construction workers. The perfect combination between them.

Oxygen sensors

On April 25, 2015, 9 people were killed and 12 people were injured (3 of them seriously) in a copper mine in China. It is understood that the mine adopts the shooting method to deal with the plugging. 6 construction workers blindly entered the site to check the situation, but did not carry gas detection alarms and self-rescue personnel. After the accident, miners blindly organized rescue. Due to lack of protective measures, 15 people were poisoned and suffocated. cause an accident.

It can be seen that we monitor toxic gases and oxygen before mining in the copper mining area. We will ensure the safety of construction workers. The specific operation requires the use of toxic gas sensors and oxygen sensors. Monitor and record gas concentrations in real time. If it is safe, go down well. Toxic gas sensors we usually use carbon monoxide sensors, nitrogen dioxide sensors, sulfur dioxide sensors.

 

Oxygen gas sensors (O2 sensor)  is an electrochemical oxygen sensor, commonly known as oxygen battery, 4 series size, 2 years service life. We will measure the oxygen concentration in the environment. I usually use it in coal mine, steel, petrochemical, medical, tunnel and other applications.
