Aflame scanner
Bhalide torch

Ddetector filament
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) combustible gas indicator. A combustible gas indicator is the appropriate tool to detect the presence of explosive gases in a space, tank, or compartment. This device directly measures the concentration of combustible gases, allowing the user to determine if the atmosphere is within the explosive range. The other options are not designed for this specific purpose - a flame scanner detects the presence of liquid fuels, a halide torch detects halogenated compounds, and a detector filament is used for general gas detection, not specifically for explosive gases.
