Point Hydrocarbons – IR

The Point Hydrocarbon NDIR LEL detector is designed for performance in harsh and hazardous environments. Utilizing solid-state infrared technology, this detector delivers dependable hydrocarbon gas detection with minimal maintenance requirements.

Key Features:

• High Reliability and Durability: Built with a rugged 316 stainless steel construction and a straightforward design, the Point Hydrocarbon IR is built to endure the most challenging industrial applications.
• Dual Wavelength NDIR Technology: This innovative technology utilizes self-compensating sensing and reference elements, ensuring optical integrity and minimizing the impact of potential signal inhibitors.
• Operates in Anaerobic Atmospheres and Constant Hydrocarbon Background: The self-contained optics function flawlessly in environments with no oxygen or consistent hydrocarbon presence. Additionally, the detector is resistant to poisoning and etching from common contaminants.
• No Routine Calibration and Virtually Maintenance Free: Eliminate the need for scheduled calibrations. The Point Hydrocarbon IR only requires annual zeroing, significantly reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
• 3-Wire 4-20 mA Linear Output: Seamless integration into new or existing control systems is facilitated by the 3-wire 4-20 mA linear output. The detector transmits fault and special function signals below 4 mA for clear communication.
