2360-300 EC 36 Fixed Gas Transmitter with Display and Alarm Relays by GfG

Remote Transmitters for Oxygen and Toxic Gases

The EC 30 is an advanced transmitter for the detection of toxic gases and oxygen levels. This smart area monitor has an aluminum explosion proof housing with a stainless steel sensor cover that makes the EC 30 series suitable for the harshest environments.

Simple and effective

Once you power up the units, they will accurately display values on the large LCD and transmit a linear 4-20 mA signal to any GfG controller. AutoCal automatic calibration and maintenance is done effortlessly through push buttons or via a digital remote control connection. Smart sensors allow the user to easily change ranges or gas types in the field without a need for additional programming. The EC 36 is equipped with onboard relays for two alarm points and one sensor fault for local connection and activation or deactivation of external devices like alarms, fans, auto dialers etc.

Digital display / control connection

The digital connection allows display of readings, non-intrusive maintenance and AutoCal calibration activation to be done locally or from a distance.

Features

• Robust industrial design
• Fully-automatic one button calibration adjustment

Smart sensors enable the user to change measuring ranges or gas types in the field without a need for additional programming. The Dynagard is equipped with onboard relays for two adjustable alarm points. It also has one sensor fault for local connection and activation or deactivation of external devices like strobes, fans, auto dialers etc.

2492-005 Dynagard 25 for CO2 Stand-Alone System with IR 24 Transmitter for Detecting Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from 0-5% vol. and GMA 41B Single Channel Controller by GfG

Simple and Effective

The Dynagard 25 Series accurately measures CO2 levels. The unit offers a local display, a horn / strobe, and a linear 4-20 mA output. The Dynagard 25 Series offers a safe and reliable gas warning system.

Alarm Points

Each alarm can be adjusted separately. The alarm point values can be freely adjusted within the detection range of the transmitter. Every alarm point value can be set to over range / under range, latching / non-latching, or resettable / non-resettable.

Alarm Relays

The controller provides four voltage-free relays for the three alarms and one fault warning. The relays may be used to control additional alarm devices like lights or horns. They can even prompt specific counter measures to prevent or limit dangers from gases or vapors.

IR 24 Detection Principle: Infrared Light

Since carbon dioxide (CO2) absorbs light in the infrared spectral range, the NDIR method used in the GfG sensor can measure the carbon dioxide concentration precisely and reliably. Infrared light is sent through the sensor chamber. Carbon dioxide absorbs a part of this light in a narrow spectral range, and the remaining light is measured at the detector. The difference between the light sent and received is proportional to the gas concentration. Water vapor or other gases that can be present in the sensor chamber do not affect the light absorption in this spectrum band.

Features

• Easy installation
• Local display and horn / strobe
• Adjustable alarm points
• On-board relays for external controls
• 4-20 mA output

2492001 IR 24 Fixed Gas Transmitter Carbon Dioxide (CO2), 0-5% Vol. by GfG

CO2 a toxic hazard

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is often used as a work medium, or is stored, shipped, or generated as a by-product of certain industrial applications. The specific characteristics of CO2 make this gas a hidden danger.

Carbon dioxide is odorless, tasteless, and undetectable to human senses. CO2 is considerably heavier than air and can rapidly build to dangerous concentra-tions in holes, sewers, or cellars. Concentrations as low as 4 percent volume can be toxic, and 8 percent volume CO2 can cause death. Carbon dioxide also displaces the oxygen content in the ambient air, which may lead to asphyxiation.

GfG Instrumentation's fixed gas warning systems allow continuous monitoring of gas hazards to ensure that countermeasures can be taken in time. A fixed gas monitoring system consists of a remote sensor which is connected by a cable to a controller such as the GMA 011, GMA 100, or GMA 300. The controller powers the remote sensor and evaluates its measurement signals.

IR24 for CO2

The remote sensor with its sensor cell is mainly responsible for the reliability of a gas monitoring system. The sensor is installed wherever CO2 may be present. Even the lowest gas concentrations can be detected and transmitted to a central control station as current or voltage signals which are proportional to the actual gas concentration.

IR24 detection principle: infrared light

Since carbon dioxide (CO2) absorbs light in the infrared spectral range, the NDIR method used in the GfG sensor can measure the carbon dioxide concentration precisely and reliably. Infrared light is sent through the sensor chamber. Carbon dioxide absorbs a part of this light in a narrow spectral range, and the remaining light is measured at the detector. The difference between the light sent and received is propor-tional to the gas concentration. Water vapor or other gases that can be present in the sensor chamber do not affect the light absorption in this spectrum band.

Durable construction for long lifetime

The IR24 does not contain any moving parts that are subject to wear and tear, ensuring a long lifetime, and low maintenance costs. More safety is provided by the permanent self-check and function test of the GMA controller. Sensor and electronics are protected in a solid enclosure from dust and water according to IP 54. This ensures that water cannot enter the detector, even in wet environments.

Easy handling

Behind a service lid on the front of the IR 24 are potentiometers and test connectors for easy adjustment of zero point and detection range. This allows one-person calibration on-site and reduces service down-time.

Quality control adds more safety

All remote sensors are made by GfG Instrumentation and have to pass a 100% quality and function test. All sensors are shipped pre-calibrated. An authorized GfG Instrumentation specialist makes the final adjustments during system installation.
