Infra Red Point Hydrocarbons Gas Detectors
The IR gas detectors PointWatch™ PIR9400 use IR hydrocarbons absorption measurement technology.
The detector is immune to catalytic gas detector's poisons such as silicones and hydrides. It provides continuous monitoring of methane gas concentrations in the range of 0 to 100% LFL.
Routine calibration is not needed because, utilizing this technology, it is continuously self-tested and does not wear during exposition to hydrocarbons. The detector also works in a more stable manner and reacts faster to gas concentrations.
Fail-safe operation: continuous self-test automatically indicates a fault or fouled optics condition.
Standard 4–20 mA output.
The PointWatch™ is compatible with R8471 controllers (obsolete) in gas panel or with Infiniti® U 9500 transmitter (obsolete) and FlexVu® UD10 controller as the local stand-alone measuring point. It can also work in Dettronics Eagle Quantum Premier® hazard event monitoring system.
Approvals:
- PointWatch™ PIR9400 is ATEX, IECEX certified: Ex d IIB+H2 T4-T6 Gb
- SIL2 certified to IEC61508 by Exida®
Warranty: 5 years
NOTE:
The product will be withdrawn from production soon. It is offered as replacement or spare part only. It can be repaired. Please contact IP&S for the selection of a replacement detector.
The IR gas detector PIRECL PointWatch Eclipse® uses IR hydrocarbons absorption measurement technology. It provides continuous, fixed monitoring of flammable hydrocarbon gases from 0 to 100% Lower Flammable Limit (LFL).
The detector is immune to catalytic gas detector's poisons such as silicones and hydrides.
Routine calibration is not needed because, utilizing this technology, it is continuously self-tested and does not wear out during exposition to hydrocarbons. This allows manufacturer to give 5 year warranty.
The detector works in a more stable manner and reacts faster to gas concentrations than standard IR detectors. It also continuously performs self-tests and signals fault and fouled optics conditions.
NEW ! FAST RESPONSE VERSION IS NOW AVAILABLE !
The new fast response detector has been certified to FM, CSA, IECEx and ATEX requirements for global applications to detect methane or butane in as little as 1.5 seconds with weather protection including a hydrophobic filter !
Beside the features of simplified version (PointWatch), Eclipse® does not need any transmitter or junction box to process the 4-20mA signal.
It is constructed the way that zero drift does not occur during normal work.
The standard version has an analog 4-20mA output with HART protocol and RS-485 communication port with MODBUS or ASCII protocol enables sending data to master device. Optional built-in relay packge provides two alarm relays and one fault relay.
The PIRECL cooperates with the same external devices as simple PointWatch i.e. can be connected to Universal Displays FexVu® UD10 or UD30, and work as stand alone measuring points or can be connected to Det-tronics Eagle Quantum Premier® Hazard Event Monitoring System (special, adressable version).
Approvals:
- Eclipse is ATEX, IECEX certified: Ex db eb IIC T4...T5 / Ex db eb [ib] IIC T4...T5 (with HART communication port)
- Detector is IEC 61508 SIL2 certified
