In this paper, with regards to the disadvantages of traditional gas sensor used in mine, an intelligent infrared detection method for methane gas based on Non-dispersive Infrared technology is presented. Through the introduction of the principle of infrared spectrum absorption, further to the adoptions of differential measurement method and the technology of single light beam & dual wavelength detection, the relationships between pyroelectric detector signal and gas concentration has been analyzed in details. A relevant formula has been given for between the gas absorption ratio

and the peak value of pyroelectric detector terminal voltage. Experimental results show that the measurement error is less than ±0.1% (when concentration of methane gas <4%), and meet the requirement of coal mine safety operation.
