U10 UAV-Mounted Laser Methane Detector
Drone-Based Methane Leak Detection for Pipeline and Industrial Inspection
The AiLF U10 UAV-mounted laser methane detector is a compact, lightweight methane detection payload designed for drone-based gas leak inspection. Using tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS), the U10 enables fast and sensitive detection of methane (CH₄) from the air.
With a 150 m open-path detection range, the U10 is designed for natural gas pipeline inspection, petrochemical facilities, landfill monitoring, and industrial gas leak detection. Its lightweight design helps extend UAV flight time while reducing the operational risks and costs associated with conventional ground inspections.
The U10 is compatible with DJI M400 and M350 series UAVs and supports inspection video, event records, and data export through the application. System integration services are also available for transmitting inspection data and on-site video to customer platforms.
