Application/Description
The AutroPoint HC200 is a diffusion-based, infrared
combustible gas detector that provides continuous,
fixed monitoring of flammable hydrocarbon gases
from 0 to 100% Lower Flammable Limit (LFL).
Standard device outputs include an electrically
isolated 4-20 mA signal with HART communication
protocol, and RS-485 serial communication.
Serial communication protocols supported include
MODBUS and ASCII. An optional relay output board
with two programmable alarm relay outputs and one
fault relay output is available.
An optional AutroVu Explosion-Proof Universal
Display Unit Model AV20 can be used for remote
calibration.
Ideally suited for protection of challenging on/offshore
oil and gas facilities and other downstream hydrocarbon
applications, the HC200 is globally certified for use in
Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, and Zones 1 and 2 hazardous
areas. In addition, the stainless steel construction,
sapphire optics, and modular design all combine to
deliver industrial grade hardness along with easy
installation and the lowest cost of ownership available.
The AutroPoint HC200 is capable of detecting hundreds
of flammable hydrocarbon gases and vapors. The
detector is performance certified to methane, propane,
ethylene, and butane, and is shipped from the factory
set and calibrated to one of these gases. Numerous
additional operating parameters are programmable
via digital communication or the optional hand-held
communicator.
