RKI "S" Series Explosion Proof Gas Sensor and Transmitter Features

The transmitter is a reliable and durable solution for onsite hazards. True to its reputation, RKI Instruments designed this series with user friendly features to meet growing customer demands. This series features an explosion proof housing, patented water repellant sensor coating, long life sensors (2+ years of typical life), and an intrinsically safe rating. The unit operates independently of a controller and is available for LEL, H2S, CO, O2, and ppm HC monitoring. Infrared sensors are also available for LEL and CO2.

To protect the circuitry, the electronics are enclosed inside a potted package. This helps to reduce wear and tear due to corrosion and abuse. The amplifier is situated inside an aluminum explosion proof enclosure. Additionally, all sensors are explosion proof with flame arrestors. The flame arrestors use a patented water repellant coating. They are approved for use in hazardous atmospheres.

73-1020RK-01 PS 2 Single Point Stand Alone Monitor for LEL Detection, 24 VDC Powered by RKI Instruments

A perfect low cost solution for hydrogen detection in battery rooms, or for LEL or PPM level detection of a variety of flammable or solvent vapors in general industry.

The Model PS 2 is a multipurpose gas monitor utilizing a MOS (metal oxide sensor) for long lasting and low maintenance detection at the LEL or PPM levels of many gases or vapors. The PS 2 has two alarm levels for increasing gas or vapor levels, at the PPM level for detection of many solvent vapors, or for LEL level detection of flammable vapors. Inquire at the factory for your specific requirement. Each alarm level activates a 12 amp relay inside the unit, and terminals are provided for wiring the relay to activate an external alarm device or some other device such as a ventilation fan.

This stand alone unit is housed in a durable plastic enclosure with flanges provided for wall mounting and is designed with easy access wiring hubs on the bottom of the unit. The front of the PS 2 contains three lights; Pilot, Alarm 1, and Alarm 2. An internal audible alarm (85 db) activates in a gas alarm condition.

The standard PS 2 is supplied with the gas sensor located on the end of a 30 foot cable (other cable lengths are also available). Each unit is powered by 115 VAC standard or 24 VDC as standard (48 VDC versions optional), and the AC version comes complete with a 6' power cord.

Features

• LEL or PPM detection ranges available for many gases
• 2 alarm levels
• Stand alone system
• Input voltages: 115 VAC standard, 24 VDC or 48 VDC (optional)
• Audible and visual alarms
• Compact design
• Simple installation
• AC version equipped with power cord
• Relay contacts rated 12A @ 115 VAC
• Low maintenance

Industry Applications

• Battery storage locations
• Petrochemical plants
• Refineries
• Water & wastewater treatment plants
• Degreasers
• Gas, telephone, & electric utilities
• Manufacturing facilities
• Steel
• Automotive
• HVAC

61-0140RK Sensor, LEL Combustible (Catalytic), Direct Connection (No Transmitter, No J-Box), UL Version by RKI Instruments

When working on potentially hazardous jobsites, safety managers should look for workplace safety solutions that are dependable and steadfast. When lives are on the line, a workplace cannot afford subpar safety products. That is why, at RKI Instruments, workplace safety is a top priority. Their Research and Development team work daily to integrate the latest technology with the best industry practices. With a reputation for excellent products, RKI Instruments introduces the latest in direct connect sensor technology. Designed for use in Class 1, Division 2 hazardous environments, the Direct Connect Sensors are designed specifically for RKI Beacon 110, 200, and 410 controllers.

Direct Connect Sensors

The RKI Direct Connect Sensors series gas sensors are state of the art gas detection sensors available for LEL, H2 Specific LEL, LEL IR, Oxygen, H2S, CO, CO2, and a variety of toxic gases. To use the Direct Connect Sensors, they can be used for remote detection by mounting them onto explosion proof junction boxes, or they can mount directly onto controllers and be used as a completely standalone system. Their unique plugin design allows for a quick and easy tool free installation on jobsites.

Detection solutions for a variety of hazardous environments

The Direct Connect Sensors are designed to be use in both indoor and outdoor settings. Additionally, some of the sensors are available in explosion proof models. The explosion proof models utilize a patented coating which serves double duty as also being water repellant. Users can also purchase splash guards to protect the sensors from very wet conditions.

Sensor Technology

Each sensor is crafted with stainless steel and housed in cast aluminum (stainless steel housing is available for some sensors). The Direct Connect Sensors are available in 2 forms: explosion proof and non-explosion proof. The explosion proof sensors are available as catalytic sensors for LEL, and LEL H2 specific. For hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide, the sensors utilize electrochemical technology which provides incredibly specific accuracy and quick response. Oxygen sensors work with galvanic technology, and infrared sensors for methane, hydrocarbons, and carbon dioxide. Non-explosion proof uses a galvanic sensor for oxygen; electrochemical sensors for hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide and other toxic gases; and infrared for carbon dioxide. Both explosion proof and non-explosion proof have 1 year warranties for materials and craftsmanship.

Specifications

The response times are under 30 seconds for all gases except hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide in the non-explosion versions (with a response time of 35 seconds) and non-explosion proof model sensor for toxic gases which has a 60 second response time. The life expectancy of all sensors are between 2 and 5 years.

The Direct Connect Sensors are compatible with several RKI Industries' accessories including calibration adaptors, flow through adaptors, remote horns and lights, calibration kits, battery backups, splash guards, air aspirator adaptors, and dataloggers.
