Description
Cyclohexane gas LEL detector – explosion proof sensor transmitter – ATEX, SIL 2, Zone 1, 2
online, continuous detection and monitoring of LEL (flammability) of Cyclohexane gas / vapour in air or gas stream ducts, flameproof / explosion proof certified Zone 1, 2 – ATEX, SIL 2, with / without display, contact relays, flashing alarm LEDs, RS485 serial interface with Modbus RTU protocol
Model: S2XX7
Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used).
Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon.
SMART S series cyclohexane gas sensor transmitter is highly robust, industrial grade, flameproof or explosion proof instrument for LEL concentration detection. The instrument can be installed for flammability level or LEL detection of cyclohexane concentration or leakage in all industrial and commercial area eg. chemical plant, solvent manufacturing unit, polymer industry, manufacturing plants, warehouse etc
The detector can be installed at walls, surfaces or in ducts for monitoring in gas or air sample. It is ATEX EEx’d’ certified with SIL 2 safety integrity level for hazardous area installation Zone 1 and 2.
The sensor transmitter offers linear, proportional analog output in industry standard current signals, over measuring range of 0 ~ 100% LEL (lower explosive limit). The detector works on highly sensitive catalytic bead based pellistor sensor cell, with low response time. It has unique feature of auto diagnostic watch dog with zero point tracking feature. Due to its 10-bit microprocessor based control unit, it offer high accuracy over long term. The detector is also equipped with sintered filter with flashback arrestor for enhanced safety.
