BL-CH4 MINI: A Cutting-Edge Solution for Gas Leak Monitoring
BLV UAV Methane Detector for DJI Dock 2, M3D, and M3TD
The BLV UAV Methane Detector (BL-CH4 MINI) is a purpose-built gas detection drone sensor for identifying methane leaks fast. It works seamlessly with DJI Dock 2, M3D, and M3TD for fully automated or remote inspections. Industrial operators use it to detect leaks from pipelines, gas plants, and landfills without putting crews in harm’s way.
Why Use the BLV UAV Methane Detector
Methane leaks waste resources, risk safety, and violate compliance rules. Manual inspections are slow and dangerous. The BLV UAV Methane Detector solves this with:
- High Sensitivity – Detects methane down to 5 ppm from up to 50 m away
- Fast Response – Laser detection module reacts in 20 ms
- Stable Performance – Three-axis gimbal head for steady readings
- Real-Time Data – GPS mapping and cloud sync for instant reporting
- Dock Ready – Optimized for DJI Dock 2 automated missions
- Lightweight Build – Won’t compromise flight time or stability
Where This Sensor Works Best
- Oil and Gas Pipelines – Locate leaks quickly before they escalate
- Refineries and Petrochemical Plants – Monitor high-risk zones remotely
- Urban Gas Networks – Inspect without disrupting communities
- Industrial Parks – Continuous monitoring over large areas
- Landfills – Detect and manage greenhouse gas emissions
- Livestock Farms – Support methane reduction initiatives
