The Model IR400 Point IR Combustible Gas Detector features a three-second response time to the presence of combustible hydrocarbon-based gases. Plant employees can quickly and safely be alerted to leaks, and the device warns to shut down processes in affected areas. This allows plant operators to respond quickly to gas leaks and avoid potential accidents. Conversely, a built-in self-diagnostic system prevents false alarms and unnecessary shutdowns. Other product features include:
- Splash guard protects from rain and environmental disruptions
- Fail-to-safe continuous gas/vapor monitoring within the lower explosive limit (LEL)
- Monitors gases including methane, propane, ethane, ethylene, butane, hexane, pentane and benzene
- Self-diagnostic design to prevent false alarms and process shutdowns
- Monitors supply voltage and optical path integrity
