Proponent: Maestro Mine Ventilation Partners: Status: Complete OBJECTIVE: To manufacturer gas sensors that can be calibrated on surface with zero and span reference gases and then brought to depth without the requirement to re-calibrate at depth. CHALLENGES: Past use of sensors in underground mines has been unreliable due to the difficulty maintaining and calibrating the sensors. As a result, many mines give up or ignore the sensors due to lack of confidence in the readings. Both electrochemical and infra-red sensors are used to measure gas concentration in today’s gas monitors. Both...
