IR Sensor for Combustible Gases (Methane) for T40 Transmitter 0-100% LEL

IR Sensor for Combustible Gases (Methane) for T40 Transmitter 0-100% LEL

Infrared sensors operate using the NDIR principle to monitor the presence of the target gas. The sensor contains a long-life tungsten filament infrared light source, an optical cavity in which the gas diffuses, a dual temperature-compensated pyroelectric infrared detector, a semiconductor temperature sensor, and electronics to process the signals from the pyroelectric detector.

Characteristics:

• Contains all the optics, electronics and firmware necessary to provide temperature compensated output.
• Choice of output format: direct pellistor replacement, industry standard 0.4 to 2 volts DC, or digital.
• Instantly converts existing pellistor-based instruments to infrared.
• Wide range of gas calibration options available, e.g. methane, propane, butane, etc.
• Sensors can be factory configured to customer specifications.
