Explosion-Proof Transmitter

Ensuring the reliable detection of combustible gases and vapours, the Draeger (Germany) PIR 3000 is a smart, explosion proof, infra-red gas transmitter. Utilising the latest DraegerSensor IR technology, it offers an excellent priceperformance ratio, is immune to poison and provides failsafe operation in any potentially explosive environment.

With a long expected lifetime of over 15 years and offering reduced maintenance costs, this flexible transmitter is designed to detect methane, propane and ethylene. Each of these potential hazards is listed in a single internal gas library and can be changed easily and at any time via a magnetic wand.

Incorporating a universal 4 to 20 mA interface, the PIR 3000 can be connected to any 4 to 20mA control system, such as the Draeger

REGARD, and features an unmistakable 1mA fault signal. With a totally flexible mounting operation, the PIR 3000 can also be supplied with either metric M25 or ¾ inch NPT thread for use with existing junction boxes.

In addition, individual linearisation curves offer temperature compensated readings and the unit is housed within a stainless steel SS 316 enclosure for maximum protection. The integral splashguard ensures weather protection to IP 67 and the unit is also ATEX, UL and CSA approved.
