PrimaX® IR Gas Transmitter

Introduction

MSA’s PrimaX IR Gas Transmitter offers LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) combustible gas detection through a patented PrimaX Gas Transmitter IR dual source design. A redundant IR source provides reliability and uninterrupted monitoring should a source failure occur. Furthermore, the possibility of obscurations due to rain, fog, dirt, dust, and other environmental conditions is minimized due to dual source design.

Highlights

• Dual source design provides redundancy and reliable, uninterrupted performance.
• Environmental guard sensor housing for fast, efficient response time.
• Heated optics prevent condensation buildup.
• 4–20 mA analog output.
• User-friendly setup, calibration diagnostics, and maintenance via HART digital communication.
• One-person calibration is easily performed using calibration cap.
• Easy connection using stainless steel junction box.
• SIL 2 design provides safety system integration capability.
• 316 stainless steel, IP 67-rated, rugged housing protects unit from environmental extremes.
• Factory-calibrated for fast commissioning.
