Crowcon's new IRmax is an ultracompact
infrared (IR) gas detector
which delivers rapid, fail-safe
detection of hydrocarbon gases with
very low power consumption. Due to
its compact size, the IRmax is easy to
install in even the most inaccessible
locations, says Crowcon.
Featuring dual-wavelength IR sensor technology in a rugged 316 stainless steel package, IRmax is designed to operate in harsh conditions in temperatures ranging from -40 to +75°C. The company says that unlike conventional IR gas detectors, IRmax does not utilise heaters to prevent condensation on windows and mirrors - instead it has STAY-CLIR optical components, which are treated with a highly durable coating that prevents faults due to condensation.
