Detcon’s (USA) Model 700 industrial gas detection sensors are a new generation of intelligent sensor modules that incorporate several leading edge improvements. Dubbed as “environmentally bulletproof,” these sensors are designed not only to endure the hostile elements of nature, but to survive with exceptional reliability.
This superior level of environmental durability in sensor design includes an electro-polished 316 stainless steel housing, multi-layered transient spike protection circuitry, and 100% encapsulated electronics thereby virtually eliminating water ingress and corrosion.
In addition, all sensor elements are plug-in components and can easily be replaced in the field. Operator interface is non-intrusive via a small handheld magnet and configuration and routine calibration is intuitive and menu driven with fully scripted instructions. Sensor status is displayed on a built-in alphanumeric LED display. Model Series 700 intelligent sensor modules feature dual redundant outputs, a linear 4-20 milliamp analogue signal and a Modbus RS-485 serial output. Sensor technologies include catalytic bead for combustible gases; electrochemical for oxygen and toxic gases; infrared for combustible hydrocarbons, photo ionization for VOCs, and Solid State MOS for hydrogen sulphide. Detcon’s Model Series 700 has the full CE Mark.
