Franatech underwater sensors for dissolved gases
Franatech underwater sensors for dissolved gases
The METS methane sensor was introduced in 1999 as the first practical sensor for methane monitoring and detection underwater. With a proven track record, it offers true performances for the best price. It is used in all oceans of this world but the Antarctic. It was as well deployed successfully in famous lakes such as Lake Constance (Germany), Kivu (Africa) and Baikal (Russia).
We supply sensors for methane, CO2 and hydrogen
Our sensors are used world-wide for various applications: hydrate research, underground tunneling, offshore oil and gas exploration activities, offshore installations safety and integrity surveys, lake ecosystems research, climate research, deepwater oceanology, groundwater quality monitoring, landfill leachate monitoring.
