These checks are typically done using lower explosive limit (LEL) meters which provide the percent LEL and oxygen level in the atmosphere, and many have other sensors installed (e.g., carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, etc.). Most manufacturers suggest the meters be calibrated using a known methane or pentane standard.
