SGX IR600
The IR600 Series gas sensors are designed to detect and monitor the presence of CO2, hydrocarbons and acetylene using the same non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) principle as used in the SGX Sensortech range of miniature infrared gas sensors. The IR600 Series incorporates an inbuilt and sealed preamplifier/buffer and require connection to suitable transmitter systems for their power supply, operation and signal processing.FEATURES
● For detection of the following gases: o Carbon Dioxide (IR601), o Hydrocarbons (IR602, IR603) o Acetylene (IR604)● Diffused gas sampling via sinter
● Low power
● Reference channel for self-compensation
● Special gold plated optical/gas cavity for stable signal levels
● Operational in varying temperature, pressure and humidity
● Fast response
● Rugged stainless steel construction
● No moving parts
● Resistance to corrosion
● Immunity from ‘poisoning’
● Reliable fail-safe operation
● Low maintenance
● Sealed preamplifier/buffer electronics
● Accessories available for field applications
● ATEX certified
● CSA certified (Canada and US) OPERATING PRINCIPLE SGX Sensortech manufactures a range of Infrared (IR) Gas Sensors for a variety of gases and vapours in different applications. These are compact and robust gas diffusion type sensors based on an SGX Sensortech patented optical design. They run on low power and use well proven NonDispersive Infrared (NDIR) detection methods. The sensor operates using the natural ability of the target gases to absorb radiation in the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
