Description
Crowcon Xgard (Type 4) High Temperature Flammable Gas Detector (Methane 0-100% LEL)
The Xgard range is a comprehensive selection of fixed point gas detectors that meet the diverse requirements for gas detection in industries throughout the world. This includes many water treatment, oil and gas, power, research facility and manufacturing installations. Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) or Flameproof (Exd) versions are available, with case options comprising high-grade alloy, stainless steel or chemically resistant GRN polymer. Certifications include IECEx, ATEX, UL, GOST-R and MED.
Type 4 Exd Flameproof flammable gas detectors use a poison resistant pellistor within a 316 stainless steel housing attached to an Xgard enclosure (aluminium), which also contains the terminals to provide a 3-wire mV Wheatsone Bridge output. Operating temperature -20 to +150?C. Can be connected directly to Crowcon Gasmaster and Gasmonitor, an Accessory Enclosure accessory is required for connection to 4-20mA type control systems such as Vortex.
