Abstract

A gas detection device and process detect a target gas for monitoring an area for the target gas. A radiation source emits electromagnetic radiation () that penetrates the area and impinges on an array of filters () that distributes the impinging radiation () onto a first gas photosensor (), a second gas photosensor () and a reference photosensor (). The first gas photosensor () is only sensitive to radiation in a first wavelength range, the second gas photosensor () is only sensitive to radiation in a second wavelength range and the reference photosensor () is only sensitive to radiation in a reference wavelength range. The wavelength ranges are spaced apart from one another. An analysis unit () analyzes signals [Sig(), Sig(), Sig()] from the three photosensors () and carries out three pair comparisons to determine whether or not the target gas is present.
