Detector Electronics Corp. (Det-Tronics) recently released its FlexVu™ Model UD10 universal display, a life-safety gas detection display unit that offers non-intrusive calibration and local event logging. According to the company, this display furthermore:
- Provides non-intrusive magnetic calibration and configuration, thereby allowing a single person to calibrate gas detectors without declassifying a hazardous area.
- Works with a wide spectrum of toxic and combustible gas sensors, thus reducing spare-parts inventory.
- Facilitates access to sensor status information, including local alarm and event logs.
- Incorporates a backlit, heated LCD that clearly displays gas concentration, and alarm and fault status.
- Permits you to couple the display directly to a single sensor or place it remotely using a sensor termination box.
- Includes analog 4- to 20-mA output with HART, 3 alarm relays, 1 fault relay and RS-485 Modbus.
- Has undergone third-party performance testing, and certification to FM, CSA and ATEX/IEC.
- Is approved for use in Class I, Division 1, Groups A, B, C and D classified hazardous areas for all gas types.
- Simplifies equipment operation due to its intuitive menu structure.
- Enables quick device setup.
- Boasts of reliable construction and an explosion-proof rating.
- The PIR9400 PointWatch infrared detector for combustible gases.
- The PIRECL PointWatch Eclipse® infrared detector for combustible gases.
- The OPECL Open Path Eclipse infrared detector for combustible gases.
- The CGS catalytic combustible sensor (via the 505 transmitter) for combustible gases.
- The NTMOS nanotechnology metal-oxide semiconductor hydrogen sulfide sensor for toxic gases.
- C706x and GT3000 electrochemical sensors for toxic gases.
