Impact Multi-gas Detector with Innovative New Infra Red (IR) Replaceable Sensor
Feb 01 2008
The Impact IR system uses Impactâs unique replaceable sensor cartridge concept to house the IR sensor alongside three other toxic and oxygen deficiency sensors. Operators can now interchange cartridges to detect a variety of gases, especially those best monitored with the poison resistant, solid-state optical sensor technology.
IR allows the Impact to measure Carbon Dioxide (CO2), providing a stable, drift-free long life sensor method to detect CO2 in such diverse applications as waste water treatment, drinks bottling, fire suppression, leak detection and other industrial monitoring applications. Methane gas is now detectable by IR, making it ideal for gas industries including offshore drilling, gas transmission and utility companies, and the sensor can also be configured to measure some hydrocarbons at % LEL or % Vol levels for a variety of industrial monitoring applications.
IR sensing also works in the absence of oxygen, so the multi-gas Impact Pro can now enable an operator to briefly monitor prior to entry for leaks, purging efficiency or hull integrity in container vessels or pipes where there is reduced oxygen content or where an inert gas blanket has been laid over a combustible product.
The three IR sensors for % LEL, % Vol or % CO2 have the additional operational benefits of being automatically temperature compensated and do not require gas calibrations as a separate reference channel continuously monitors the sensorâs performance.
