A gas detection system and method are provided for determining the type of gas present and the concentration of the gas in terms of a percentage of a specific level of the gas. This percentage level may be in terms of a lower explosive limit level of a combustible gas. The system generally includes

A gas detection system and method are provided for determining the type of gas present and the concentration of the gas in terms of a percentage of a specific level of the gas. This percentage level may be in terms of a lower explosive limit level of a combustible gas. The system generally includes a testing chamber, a detection channel apparatus, a memory for storing a plurality of gas signature tables, and a programmed controller for determining the identity and concentration level of a gas. The system and method further provide for the accurate determination of gas concentration level at very high and low concentration levels by weighted average computation.

The light reflected from the workpiece surface passes via the scanner mirror or mirrors onto an optical detector and is focused onto the latter. Taking into account the respective pivoting angle of the scanner mirror(s), the measuring signals of this optical detector are fed to the electronic evaluation and control unit, so that the deflection of the laser beam can be controlled during the machining in dependence on the actual position of the contour ascertained in this way for the machining.
