TXgard Plus

Compare

Non-intrusive calibration

  • Calibration can be performed locally without the need for hot work permits – minimises operational down-time
  • Local display and buttons enable calibration without opening the junction box

Flexible output options

  • 4-20mA current sink or source – works with a wide selection of control panels
  • 3 wire format
  • Optional relays for alarm and fault – can be used for switching local alarms

Rugged and reliable

  • Constructed using marine-grade aluminium with a stainless steel sensor housing – proven track record for providing reliable oxygen, toxic and flameproof gas detection, even in the harshest of environments
  • Ingress protection to IP65 as standard

Low cost of ownership

  • Non-intrusive one man calibration – easy to operate and maintain
  • Long life sensors – keeps interuption to on-site activity to a minimum
  • Simple parts replacement

Wide range of sensors

  • A range of carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphate and oxygen electrochemical sensors available for toxic and oxygen gas detection

Accessories

Below is a small selection of the accessories available for the TXgard Plus.

Spray deflector

C01052

For use outdoor installations and to protect from water sprays, for example in water treatment or food processing plants. For extremely wet environments eg: offshore installations, use weatherproof cap, CO1442, instead.

Weatherproof cap

C01442

For offshore or other extremely wet environments in place of spray deflector.

Stainless steel flow adaptor

C01688

For use where a gas sample is being piped to the detector.

Exd Cable Gland Adaptors

 

ATEX certified Exd cable gland adaptors.

Exd/Exe Certified Brass Cable gland
