If an alarm is to be installed, the safety level of the oil product must also be taken into consideration; the alarm itself needs to be explosion-proof as well. It’s quite complicated. If the concern is simply gas leaks that could pose safety risks, a passive gas hood can be used – with a vertical flue placed at a higher position to allow combustible gases to be drawn away on their own at any time. If it’s a warning system, it’s likely convenient and safe to install explosion-proof combustible gas detectors on such enclosures
