Photoionization detector (PID) sensors can be used to detect a large range of gases. A target gas refers to the specific gas you are trying to detect. G7’s readings is adjusted based on the target gas it is configured to detect.

Although PID sensors target a specific volatile organic compound (VOC) gas, readings can still be affected by the presence of non-targeted gases. Consult your safety supervisor or industrial hygienist when preparing to use a PID sensor.

G7’s PID sensor target gas is set from the configuration profile in Blackline Live. For more information, contact your Blackline Safety administrator.
