| New toxic gas detector  With a modular gas sensing element, a built-in local status indicator and adjustment-free calibration all designed into one of the industry's smallest packages, the new TS400 Toxic Gas Detector from General Monitors not only delivers highly reliable gas protection, but also offers lower maintenance costs and extended life.The versatile Model TS400 will detect many different gases in a wide variety of applications. Its heavy-duty industrial package supports the harsh operating environments commonly encountered in chemical processing, water or wastewater treatment, pulp and paper, electronics, food and beverage, electric utilities, textiles, pharmaceuticals and more.In the chemical processing industries, the gases commonly found in dyes, film processing and propellants are monitored effectively with the Model TS400. For monitoring of pulp and paper bleaching operations, water chlorination, sewer oxygen deficiency or waste treatment sludge gases, the TS400 meets the full range of industrial and municipal water treatment needs. With a built-in LCD indicator, the Model TS400 continuously monitors for (and displays) fault conditions including calibration errors, data memory errors and low voltage supply. The advanced adjustment-free calibration design reduces maintenance costs over the life of this detector. The Model TS400's innovative modular gas sensor design is based on electro-chemical cell technology. Surface-mount transmitter electronics are contained in a lightweight, corrosion-resistant plastic housing in order to process all information locally. The TS400 provides a linear 4-20 mA analog output signal that easily connects to control hardware, such as PLCs or computer-based systems. The two-wire loop powered design reduces installation costs. The compact Model TS400 (1.75 in. diameter and 4.5 in. long) fits within the palm of your hand. It weighs only 8 oz and its smaller size allows fixed placement in crowded plant conditions where other larger detectors will not fit. A variety of accessories are available for the Model TS400, including flow block, splash guard, multi-channel controller, plastic junction box, aluminum junction box and calibration kits. To support global applications, the TS400 features universal product approvals: CUL, UL, CSA, CENELEC and CE-marking. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
