(Portable and Fixed Systems)
The SGX infrared sensors use the proven Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) principle to detect and monitor the presence of gases. With an infrared source and specific filtering on the pyroelectric detectors mounted inside the optical/gas cavity, individual gases or types of gas can be identified and their concentrations determined. These sensors are suitable for reliable monitoring of gas levels in mining applications where the sensor size is restricted and require a flameproof enclosure for hazardous environments. The IR25 Series contain two active detector elements for simultaneous monitoring of Carbon Dioxide and Methane or Hydrocarbon mixtures in the same size housing as some of the single gas sensors from the IR2xxx series sensors, making the sensor more cost effective than two separate sensors. The IR25xx Series share the same build and performance standard as the IR15xx Series, but are labelled as being intrinsically safe for methane monitoring in mining applications.
