• Xgard Type 5- Flameproof flammable gas detector with 4-20mA output
• Xgard Type 6- Flameproof thermal conductivity type gas detector
• Xsafe- Safe area flammable gas detector

Cost efficient and highly effective

With quick and easy installation and maintenance, the Xgard series is able to keep costs at a minimum. The replacement sensors, for example, are simple to replace by merely plugging them in. The replacement parts are also readily available and compatible with all Xgard models, thereby reducing the amount of required spare parts that are stored in the facility. Additionally, the sensors have two times the typical life spans of similar sensors in the industry. With a 2 year life span, worksites can expect to cut their sensor replacement costs in half. For worksites that require slightly more customization, Crowcon offers compatible accessories for the Xgard series such as sampling applications, remote gassing applications, spray deflectors, sun shields, weatherproof caps, collector cones, flow adapter, and accessories adapter.

Xgard also has flexible installation options. The unit is designed for either wall or ceiling mounts, and users will not need to purchase additional equipment for mounting. For more complex installation needs, users can purchase accessories.

Specifications

Each model is approximately the same size with dimensions of 6.1 x 6.5 x 4.3 inches and weighing approximately 1 or 2 pounds. The battery type, electrical output, and power requirements vary based on the sensor type.

Vortex 8-Channel Control Panel for Gas and Fire Monitoring

Crowcon Detection Instruments consistently produces the best gas detection and monitoring devices in the industry. Around the globe, companies and workers enjoy higher standards of safety when they purchase and implement a product by Crowcon. With many years of research and development under its belt, Crowcon continuously works to advance its product offerings by utilizing the latest technology in gas detection. The Vortex 12-channel control panel for gas and fire monitoring is one of the most versatile and compatible control panels on the market with its ease of use and ease of customization.

Easy to Use

The Vortex control panel requires very little training. The unit is incredibly easy to use and simple to understand. All of the day to day operations are easily accessible through push buttons on the front panel, and while the display panel continuously shows necessary information, the LEDs only illuminate when a hazard or fault is detected. This allows users to quickly check the conditions with a mere glance. The Vortex is also incredibly easy to service and maintain. Replacement parts simply plug into the unit, and the interior of the panel was designed for easy access for cable termination. The zones within the unit are compartmentalized so that a user may work on one part of the unit without disabling the entire control panel.

Maximum Flexibility

Crowcon understands the economics of efficiency. When designing the Vortex 12-channel control panel, the company worked to create a product that would be optimally compatible with existing equipment and infrastructures. The Vortex can be configured to match any and all site requirements with minimum wiring. The control panel may also be factory set with specific requirements, easing the installation and training process. These settings may be adjusted at any time by a PC using Vortex software. The panel also uses industry standard communication links and can be simply integrated with existing control systems.

Reliable and Safe

The Vortex has been tested for numerous environmental hazards and is rated IP65 for dust and water ingress. To improve safety measures, all of the relays are monitored continuously. In this manner, faults are immediately identified. This helps to protect the integrity of the device and the safety of the users. The unit also continuously monitors its power supply. If power were to fail, the control panel would switch to its internal batteries which are also continuously monitored. For years, Crowcon has developed its reputation for manufacturing safe and reliable gas detection equipment. In turn, the Vortex control panel enjoys some of the highest safety standards in the industry.

Specifications

The Vortex has dimensions of 18.5 x 12 x 6.5 inches. Enclosed in aluminum and plastic, the wall mounted control panel houses up to 12 channels and utilizes IP65 ingress protection. The unit also has datalogging capabilities. The panel displays several indicators:

• Channel number
• Gas reading
• Measurement units
• Power
• Battery status
• Run/hold indication
• Channel test mode
• System fault/integrity
• Color coded visual alarms and audio alarms
