FP-624D Combustible Gas Sensor
Manufacturer: Teledyne| DetconFP-624D Combustible Gas Sensor
Manufacturer: Teledyne| DetconDetcon Model FP-624D is a “Smart” gas detection sensor designed to detect and monitor combustible gas in air over the range of 0 to 100% LEL (lower explosive limit) using matched-pair catalytic bead technology.
Model FP-624D features Detcon's MicroSafe intelligent electronics, nonintrusive operator interface and comprehensive fault diagnostics.
The sensor transmitter features an advanced universal design that fits all existing Detcon matched-pair catalytic bead sensors dating back more than 20 years.
The sensor assembly includes the detector in stainless steel housing, a base connector board, an explosion proof enclosure (available in aluminum or stainless steel), a plug-in control transmitter circuit, and a splashguard with integral cal port.
The packaging is Explosion Proof (Class I, Division 1 Groups B, C, D).
Model FP-624D is equipped with a standard Analog 4-20 mA current signal equivalent to the sensor range of detection, RS-485 serial communications port, 3 alarm relays, one-man remote calibration, self-adjusting zero and span, and LED indicators for fault, alarm, and calibration status.
