The gas detector further comprises an enclosure, the enclosure configured to house the sensor circuit. The gas sensor further comprises an end cap, the end cap configured to be detachably connected to the enclosure along a flamepath joint. The gas detector is configured to switch between operating as an explosion proof detector and an intrinsically safe detector responsive to whether the end cap is connected to the enclosure.
