Gas Detectors Receive ATEX Approval Ideal for Heavy Industrial Applications 

Detcon’s (USA) wired CX and wireless CXT Series gas detectors received ATEX Approval for use in potentially explosive environments. The gas detectors are available in two versions; an IR equipped with an infrared sensor for monitoring combustible hydrocarbons and a DM version for monitoring toxic gases and oxygen. 

CX and CXT gas detectors are a key component of the popular Site Sentinel System - a wired or stand-alone wireless gas detection system that offers quick deployment for semi-permanent and temporary gas monitoring applications. These “environmentally bulletproof” gas detectors are designed for use in heavy industrial environments and include an electro-polished 316 stainless steel housing with fully encapsulated electronics and dual layer surge protection. These details in design virtually eliminate the threat of outside damage to internal components due to water ingress, corrosion, vibration and transient spikes.

Power to the wireless CXT gas detector is supplied by disposable or rechargeable battery options that provide up to nine months of continuous operation on a single charge and indefinite run times with solar power options.
