IR sensors
March 1st 2008

The Xgard IR from Crowcon is a low cost infrared flammable gas and carbon dioxide sensor designed for use in fixed point detection systems.

The company says conventional flammable gas detectors based on catalytic pellistors are susceptible to poisoning in some industrial atmospheres, making their readings unreliable.

Crowcon says the Xgard IR is totally immune to poisoning and will reliably warn of gas hazards in environments unsuitable for other types of sensor. The sensor, a simple plug-in module, will fail to safety, detect flammable gas in inert backgrounds and is not damaged by high gas concentrations.
