The object of research in this work is one of the most important parts of
an integrated system for analyzing the quality of natural gas – a system of
sensors of individual gas components. Failure of any sensor is a difficultly
detected event and its failure actually does not lead to the termination of the
system operation, but to the incorrect determination of the components in the
gas composition (which, in terms of consequences, is much more critical
than an explicit failure). Therefore, the reliability of the sensor system in this
work will be considered from the point of view of ensuring the specified
measurement accuracy of the components included in the composition of the
gas mixture.
