Description

When it comes to gas detection, the Crowcon Xgard Fixed Multi Gas Detectors range offers a solution that not only provides reliable performance but also keeps the cost of ownership low. Designed with ease of installation and maintenance in mind, these detectors help minimise expenses while ensuring safety.

One of the key features contributing to the Xgard detectors’ cost-effectiveness is the availability of three junction box options. These options make it incredibly simple to replace sensors and sinters when needed. Light sensors can be easily plugged in, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Moreover, many spare parts are common to all Xgard models so you can keep your spare holding requirements to a minimum.

Installation flexibility is another advantage of the Xgard detectors. They are designed to be mounted on either walls or ceilings, eliminating the need for additional brackets. The detectors can accommodate M20 or 1/2″ NPT cable glands, ensuring compatibility with various site requirements. Additionally, high-temperature models are available for hot environments, with the ability to withstand temperatures up to 150°C.

The Xgard range offers a wide selection of sensors for different detection needs. From poison-resistant pellistors for flammable gases like hydrocarbons, hydrogen, and ammonia, to electrochemical sensors for detecting toxic gases and oxygen and thermal conductivity sensors for monitoring gas concentrations, these detectors provide comprehensive coverage.

Ruggedness and reliability are vital aspects of the Xgard detectors. Manufactured using high-quality materials such as glass-reinforced nylon, durable aluminium with a tough polyester coating, or corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel, they are built to withstand harsh environments. Optional spray deflectors and weatherproof caps are available for areas subject to regular wash-downs or offshore environments, further enhancing their durability.

Furthermore, all models in the Xgard range have been validated to meet the functional safety standard IEC 61508 (SIL 1 to SIL 3), ensuring their reliability and adherence to safety standards.
