The GDS-68SXP Odorant Monitor
uses industry-proven electrochemical
sensor technology to measure the
level of odorants in natural gas.
Sensors are available for mercaptans,
tetrahydrothiophene (THT) and blends
such as Spotleak ® by Arkema and
Scentinel ® from Chevron Phillips.
Scentinel ® from Chevron Phillips.
The GDS-68SXP Monitor offers an
alternative to expensive analyzers or
constant monitoring using pull tubes.
While federal regulations still require
human ‘sniffers’, the GDS-68SXP
provides a cost-effective, automated and
objective way to continuously measure
and report odorant levels throughout a
natural gas distribution network.
Reliable Measurements Day & Night
The GDS-68 SXP Odorant Monitor
automates the entire measurement
process. Before displaying the calculated
value, each result is verified for proper
gas flow, zero drift, overrange, sensor
response and more.
Designed for Remote Environments
The GDS-68SXP is designed to be
installed in remote, unattended locations.
Power usage is less than 10 watts, making
solar-powered operation practical and
reliable. Automatic calibration allows
the GDS-68SXP to periodically perform
System Calibration cycles on daily,
weekly or monthly intervals. Error
conditions are reported as multi-level
fault values, allowing remote diagnosis
via the 4-20mA analog output or RS-485
MODBUS interface.
Advanced User Interface with
Bluetooth ® Wireless Technology
The GDS-68SXP features a large,
easy-to-read color screen that displays
the current reading, system status, time
to next measurement and more. The
companion GDS Connect iOS app for
iPhone ® connects to the GDS-68SXP via
an internal Bluetooth wireless interface
and allows the user to monitor or change
settings and issue commands if GDS-68SXP user security settings allow.
Hazardous Areas
The GDS-68SXP is designed for use in
Class I Division 1 hazardous areas and
