DESCRIPTION
The Det-Tronics family of catalytic combustible gas sensors
provide unmatched flammable gas detection performance in
harsh environments and challenging conditions.
The heart of the catalytic sensor consists of a pair of computer
matched pellistors (beads) that provide identical electrical
resistance in clean air. When flammable gas is present, the
active bead catalyzes the combustible gas molecules, while
the inactive (reference) bead balances the reaction and
compensates for normal changes in the ambient environment.
The sophisticated design and construction of Det-Tronics
catalytic sensors provides excellent sensitivity, response time,
and resistance to physical shock and vibration.
All Det-Tronics catalytic gas sensors are poison-resistant, and
are constructed with a one-piece 316 stainless steel housing.
Other features include an integral thermal barrier to prevent
bead interaction, and a sinter bonding technique to ensure
superior protection against electromagnetic interference. All
sensors are provided with a laser etched identification and
approvals label that will withstand exposure to harsh outdoor
industrial environments.
The CGS can be used for detection of virtually all combustible
and flammable gases, including hydrogen, and is compatible
with the FlexVu ® UD10, Infiniti® U9500, Model 505 transmitter,
EQ22xxDCUEX, and STB.
