Monitoring toxic and flammable gases with panel
Monitoring toxic and flammable gases is now even easier with Crowcon's new Gasmaster control panel.
High temperature gas detector is ATEX certified
An ATEX certified gas detector is designed to quickly detect flammable gases in high temperature applications (up to 150 deg C) such as gas turbines, gas-fired drying ovens or coating processes.
SS bodied gas sensor resists chemicals
Stainless steel bodied, fixed-point gas sensor operates in chemically aggressive atmospheres including plastics, rubber, food and pharmaceutical production and metal processing.
The Gasmaster can monitor up to four channels, with two levels of alarm per channel, allowing it to monitor virtually any combination of flammable and toxic gas detectors, oxygen detectors and fire detectors (smoke, heat or flame).
All functions, from day-to-day operation to re-calibration, are done on the front panel, so routine testing can be carried out in an instant.
The device also warns when calibration is due and all inputs and outputs can be quickly tested at the push of a button.
All alarms and faults are recorded in an 'event log' which can be accessed regularly to assess risks on site.
Analogue outputs and RS-485 digital communications allow the control unit to be connected to PLC/DCS/Scada systems, a PC, a chart recorder or datalogger.
An integral 85dB multi-tone sounder is fitted as standard.
Battery backup is also provided as standard, ensuring continual protection even if the power fails.
Relays can operate in fail-safe mode and all coils are actively monitored so the Gasmaster can warn if a relay fails.
In its alarm state, both visual and audible warnings are activated.
Further relays are provided to control other equipment including ventilation systems, status lights and valves, depending on the alarm state of the control unit.
Installation and maintenance is simple, with ample space for cable glands and wiring terminations. Request a free brochure from Crowcon Detection Instruments ...
