FALCO 2 ensures accurate and reliable
detection you can trust, in a diverse range
of environments
Diffused & Pumped Models
The FALCO 2 offers both a pumped and diffused sampling method to accommodate a wide range of
applications and monitoring needs. FALCO 2 incorporates the world-class MiniPID 2 Photoionisation (PID)
Sensor in both 10.6 eV and 10.0 eV variants to allow detection of over 700 Volatile Organic Compounds
(VOCs). MiniPID 2 offers additional features such as lamp life longevity, and ease of service and
maintenance.
With the 10.6 option, the FALCO 2 offers four pre-defined measurement ranges of 0.001 - 10 ppm,
0.01 - 50 ppm, 0.1 - 1000 ppm & 0 - 3000 ppm. The alternative 10.0eV option boasts a lower detection range
of 0.01 - 50ppm in both Pumped or Diffused sampling methods to allow accurate detection of Total
Aromatic Compound’s (TAC) such as Benzene, Xylnene and Toluene.
With ATEX and IECEx certification, FALCO 2 is certified for use in potentially explosive environments which
makes it the ideal solution for fixed continuous monitoring. Equipped with ION Science’s patented Fence
Electrode Technology and Anti-Contamination design, FALCO 2 is resilient in the face of high humidity
levels and contamination from dust and particulates. Uniquely featured in FALCO 2 is ION Science’s
Typhoon Technology which safeguards the PID sensor from condensing moisture, making it ideal for fixed
monitoring in harsh conditions or wet outdoor environments. These unique features eliminate false
readings found with other competing technology, providing results you can trust.
Key Features
- IP65 Ingress Protection: Protection against harsh conditions and weather temperatures
- Live Readings & Instantaneous Alarms: Bright visible status indicator: RED, AMBER, GREEN
- Robust ExD Housing: ExD housing offers ease of installation and product protection
- Typhoon Technology: Prevents condensation forming within the PID sensor
- Diffused or Pumped Model Variants: 10.6 eV and 10.0 eV variants available
Additional Features
FALCO 2 offers both analog (4-20mA) and digital
(RS485 Modbus) signal outputs, enabling
seamless integration into a wide range of systems
and allowing for efficient data collection and
monitoring. This dual output capability ensures
flexibility in connecting to various control and
monitoring systems, making it ideal for complex
industrial setups.
FALCO 2 is equipped with two programmable
relays that can be configured for either Normally
Open (N/O) or Normally Closed (N/C) contacts,
provides users with versatile control options,
allowing for customised configurations based on
specific application needs.
FALCO 2 stands out for its cost-effective
performance with a low total cost of ownership,
while delivering high durability and reliability. It is
specifically designed to operate in high humidity
environments, from 0 to 100% relative humidity,
ensuring reliable functionality even in
challenging conditions. Its advanced technology
allows for accurate and dependable detection of
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), making it
ideal for industries that require consistent and
trusted VOC detecion.
Aligned with ION Science’s mission to protect
health and the environment, FALCO 2 combines
reliability, flexibility, and environmental
responsibility, making it a vital tool for safety and
environmental protection across various sectors.
