Claim 10:
11. A gas sample analysis module for analyzing and certifying a gas supplied by a gas source for breathable consumption, the module comprising:
a module frame configured to be removably couplable for insertion into a chassis;
an inlet disposed on a surface of the module frame, the inlet configured to receive a gas sample from a gas source;
a first gas sensor and a second gas sensor in fluid communication with the inlet, the second gas sensor identical to the first gas sensor, the first gas sensor and the second gas sensor configured to receive the gas sample and transmit data signals that correlate to one or more gas concentrations of the gas sample; and
a controller communicatively coupled to the first gas sensor and the second gas sensor to receive the data signals, the controller including firmware and data processing software for determining and comparing the results of the data signals, the controller configured to transmit results of the data signals as sensor data to a communication controller,
wherein the analysis module is configured to power on in response to detecting activation of an air compressor associated with the gas source, the analysis module configured to detect activation of the air compressor by detecting a level of vibration or sound that exceeds a threshold level, the vibration or sound associated with activation of the air compressor, and
wherein, responsive to a determination that the gas supplied by the gas source fails one or more gas purity requirements, the controller transmits instructions to disable the air compressor of the gas source from supplying the gas for breathable consumption.
