Methane Detectors

Methane detection technology enables the rapid identification, localisation, and monitoring of methane gas emissions from the air. By integrating advanced methane sensors with UAV platforms, operators can safely inspect large areas, identify leaks with high precision, and support environmental compliance without exposing personnel to hazardous conditions. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas commonly released from natural Gas infrastructure, landfills, oil and Gas facilities, wastewater treatment plants, agricultural operations, and mining sites. Early detection of methane leaks helps reduce environmental impact, improve operational safety, minimise product loss, and ensure compliance with industry regulations. At Advantage Drones, we provide advanced UAV-based methane detection solutions that combine high-performance gas sensors with precise GNSS positioning and professional data processing. Our systems deliver accurate, georeferenced leak locations and comprehensive reporting, enabling organisations to respond quickly and make informed decisions. Whether you're monitoring pipelines, inspecting industrial facilities, assessing landfill emissions, or conducting environmental surveys, our methane detection solutions provide fast, reliable, and efficient results.

Falcon Plus TDLAS Methane Leak Detector

The Falcon Plus Methane Detection System is a high-performance aerial solution designed for the rapid detection and localisation of methane gas leaks. Integrated with leading UAV platforms, including the DJI Matrice 300 and 350, Wispr Systems, Inspired Flight, and SkyFront drones via the SkyHub onboard computer, it delivers reliable, efficient, and accurate methane monitoring across a wide range of industrial applications.

Using advanced Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology, the Falcon Plus remotely detects methane emissions from a safe distance without requiring direct contact with the source. This enables operators to quickly survey large areas, accurately pinpoint leak locations, and significantly reduce inspection time while improving personnel safety.

Ideal for oil and gas infrastructure, landfill operations, pipelines, and environmental monitoring, the Falcon Plus supports proactive leak detection, helping organisations minimise product loss, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and maintain compliance with environmental regulations.
