World Gas Sensors, Detectors and Analyzers Markets
Frost & Sullivan, Nov 2009, Pages: 123
This research service discusses the world gas sensors, detectors and analyzers markets.
This Frost & Sullivan research service titled World Gas Sensors, Detectors and Analyzers Markets provides an in-depth analysis of the market drivers and restraints, industry trends, and competitive environment in addition to the challenges and issues faced by market participants. The study analyses electrochemical, catalytic bead, solid-state photo ionization detectors (PID) infrared sensors. It also discusses single-gas (disposable and non-disposable), multi-gas (disposable and non-disposable), transportable area monitor, non-dispersive Infrared (NDIR) Zirconia, paramagnetic, and electrochemical analyzers.
Market Overview
Regulations Spearhead Growth in the World Gas Sensors, Detectors, and Analyzers Markets
The world gas sensors, detectors, and analyzers markets are driven by legislations and regulations that already exist in the developed economies. Opportunities for growth abound in the developing and underdeveloped regions, where a steady build-up of awareness is slowly becoming apparent. As Europe and North America have explicit conformance requirements, the prospects for the market are amplified in these regions. The Asia Pacific is also considered a major geographic location that offers high growth potential. However, compared to North America and Europe, the regulations in Asia Pacific are less stringent. Concerns over personnel safety have come to the forefront in the industrial arena and toxic gas sensors are poised for huge uptake. 'Another noteworthy development is the upswing in energy costs, and organizations, particularly in the commercial sector, have become more aware of the cost of energy to run buildings,' notes the analyst of this research service. 'Facility managers are finding ways to reduce energy consumption to improve the efficiency of energy usage.' One of the ways is by measuring carbon dioxide (CO2) levels within the building and using that as a metric to control ventilation levels. This application is becoming more mainstream, driven by the fact that the cost of energy has increased so dramatically. It becomes economically viable to deploy CO2 sensors as part of the system to control ventilation and consequently to reduce the amount of energy that is used to ventilate buildings. There is a growing interest in using sensors in commercial boilers or furnaces, particularly in gas-fired appliances to deliver an in-situ feedback mechanism to measure the boiler’s efficiency.
A notable trend in the gas sensors market since 2006 is the continued requirement and expectation from OEMs and their end-user customers for gas sensors that are more reliable in harsh environments such as extremes of temperature and humidity. This is particularly important for the oil and gas industry. Superior performance and smooth operation without any false alarms are high on the priority listing for end users. This trend has pressurized sensor manufacturers to deliver more robust products that will not be impacted by environmental conditions.
Price pressure is a prominent challenge dogging the market landscape and meeting customer requirements price-wise and feature-wise has proved to be an impediment for market participants. Price pressure on OEMs is passed on to the component suppliers including sensor manufacturers. Manufacturers try to evade price pressure by providing sensors and detectors with extra features and functionality. 'In the next 5 years, gas sensors will, without making any significant technological changes, become better and more robust to meet customer’s requirements and needs better than they do at present,' says the analyst. 'Therefore, that improvement in performance and that additional value that the sensors deliver to its customers will significantly offset the demand from the marketplace for cheaper sensors.' Close partnership with customers is vital as it enables manufacturers to understand their specific needs and requirements and then introduce sensors, detectors, and analyzers, based on their feedback.
