Sensepoint XCD RFD (Remote Flammable
Detector) has been specifically designed for use
with remotely mounted flammable gas sensors.
This configuration is ideal for applications
where the sensor is required to be mounted
remotely from the transmitter in areas
where temperatures are well above ambient
(up to 150°C/302°F), or that are difficult to
access. The transmitter can be mounted at a
suitable location away from this area where it
is easy to access, view its display and interact
with via the user interface.
Applications
- Compatible with high temperature sensors
for use in and around Gas Turbine Enclosures
and solvent based printing and coating
drying ovens
- Compliant with the requirements of HSE guidance
note PM84
- Transmitter can be mounted in easy to access
area even if sensor is in a hard to access or
restricted access area
- Sensor can be mounted up to 30 metres
(100 feet) from transmitter
- Standard temperature catalytic and infrared
sensor types also available
Reliable detection
- Compatible with Honeywell Analytics’ proven
catalytic bead flammable gas sensors
- High temperature gas sensors have thermally
matched beads for highest accuracy and stability
enabling low alarm levels
- Gas sensors use long life, poison resistant beads
as standard, reducing ongoing cost of ownership
Easy to Use
- Easy to read tri-colour backlit display with digits,
bar graph and icons
- Fully configurable via non-intrusive magnetic switches
- Selectable sink or source 4-20mA output
- Auto-inhibit during maintenance prevents false alarms
Cost Effective
- Sensepoint XCD common transmitter platform
- Reduces training costs
- Reduced spares and stock costs
- Non-intrusive, one-man operation reduces
cost of maintenance
- Optional Sensepoint XCD plug-in sensor
reduces maintenance time further
Sensepoint XCD RFD is suitable for use with
several Honeywell Analytics’ sensors; the
Sensepoint XCD catalytic bead and infrared
type plug-in sensors and the Sensepoint
standard and high temperature sensors.
These sensors can be mounted up to
30 metres (100 feet) away from the transmitter
thereby accommodating even the most remote
and inaccessible applications.
The gas range is user adjustable at the
transmitter from 0-100%LEL down to
0-20%LEL. The 0-20%LEL range is particularly
suited for use with the Sensepoint high
temperature sensors that have thermally
matched beads providing optimum accuracy
and stability allowing alarm set points as low
as 5%LEL.
The transmitter’s tri-colour backlit LCD clearly
indicates the unit’s status at a glance, even
from a distance. A steady green backlight
indicates normal operation, flashing yellow
indicates fault and flashing red indicates
an alarm.
Outputs include 2 programmable alarm relays,
1 programmable fault relay as well as 4-20mA
output (sink or source selectable).
The range, relay operation, alarm set points
and electronic tag number of the detector
can be adjusted using the transmitter’s LCD
and the non-intrusive magnetic switches.
Outputs are automatically inhibited during
adjustment thereby reducing the risk of false
alarm at the control panel during maintenance.
The Sensepoint XCD Remote Flammable
Detector (RFD) can be used with Sensepoint
XCD remote flammable sensors (Catalytic and
IR), or with the Sensepoint range of flammable
gas detectors. The sensors can be directly
mounted to the M25 entry at the bottom of the
transmitter, or remotely mounted to suitable
junction boxes or duct mounting assemblies.
Sensepoint flammable detectors are available in
both standard and high temperature versions.
Sensepoint XCD RFD uses three instantly
recognisable ‘traffic light’ colours to indicate its
status. The large tri-colour backlit LCD flashes
red to indicate an alarm, flashes yellow to
indicate a fault and is steady green to indicate
normal operation. This allows anyone in the
area to clearly see at a glance the status of
any detector. This can be particularly useful to
identify detector status if the detector is located
in a difficult to access area or if a number o
