Crowcon Xgard Type 6 | Thermal Conductivity Gas Detector | % volume gases, 4-20 mA
Xgard Type 6 uses a thermal conductivity sensor to measure gases at % volume concentrations rather than %LEL, for example hydrogen in air or in nitrogen. It provides a 3-wire 4-20 mA signal (sink or source) from 10-30 V dc and operates between +10 and +55 °C. The detector is offered in aluminium or 316 stainless steel.
Key features
- Thermal conductivity sensing for % volume ranges
- 3-wire 4-20 mA, 50 mA at 24 V dc
- Aluminium or 316 stainless steel enclosure
- M20 or 1/2" NPT cable entry
- Accessories for duct mounting and sampling
