DET-TRONICS

Optical IR hydrocarbon gas detection

The PointWatch Eclipse® Model PIRECL IR Hydrocarbon Gas Detector is our most rugged stainless steel, point infrared gas detector. It is approved to be factory calibrated to detect four gases and is capable of detecting a large number of other commonly encountered hydrocarbon gases.

Features

• Performance certified to methane, propane, ethylene, and butane, and is shipped from the factory set and calibrated to one of these gases
• Rugged IP66/67 stainless steel construction and extended interval testing
• Diagnostic LED provides local alarm and fault annunciation
• Weather baffle with hydrophobic filter option combined with heated sapphire optics reduces nuisance faults from rain and condensation in harsh environments
• Certified to FM, CSA, IECEx and ATEX requirements to detect select gases in as little as 1.5 seconds

Technical Specifications

• Continuous, fixed monitoring of flammable hydrocarbon gases from 0 to 100% Lower Flammable Limit (LFL)
• Standard device outputs include an electrically isolated 4-20 mA signal with HART communication protocol and RS-485 serial communication
• Serial communication protocols supported include MODBUS and ASCII
• Global certifications (SIL 2/FM/CSA/ATEX/IECEx)

IR, UV, UVIR, and multispectrum flame detectors for critical asset protection 

Det-Tronics has designed and manufactured certified solutions (such as SIL 2/FM/CSA/ATEX/IECEx) for hazardous industrial fire and safety environments for over four decades.  During this time, our flame detectors' field-proven mechanical designs have protected customers' sites for over 10 and, in some cases, up to 25 years.

Our optical flame detectors combine sophisticated algorithms with detection technologies such as ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), UVIR, dual IR and multispectrum IR, to boost detection while minimizing false alarms.

Combustible, toxic, gas leak and oxygen depletion detectors for personnel, process and asset protection

Det-Tronics has designed and manufactured certified gas detection solutions for hazardous industrial environments for over 30 years.  During this time, we have developed a broad line of innovative and reliable gas detectors, with our acoustic and line-of-sight models winning exida safety awards.

Smoke and heat detection for the most demanding applications

Det-Tronics offers advanced photoelectric, explosion-proof smoke detectors using innovative technology that's not generally available for hazardous locations. When installed with heat, flame and gas detectors, Det-Tronics explosion-proof smoke detectors can increase the level of safety in critical, smoke-prone environments.

The Det-Tronics certified SIL 2 capable EQP fire and gas safety system is used to protect high-value and high-hazard facilities around the world

The Eagle Quantum Premier® (EQP) Fire and Gas Safety System is approved to FM 3010 in accordance with NFPA 72®: National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, 2013 Edition. The EQP is also certified SIL 2 capable and qualified for Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS).

An effective fire and gas safety system is an integrated set of inputs and outputs that meets life safety requirements and can be used for process monitoring. The EQP fire and gas safety system fulfills this definition and is listed and certified for both fire & gas control and release.

Note: Listings and certifications vary by application and the requirements of authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ). Contact your local authorized sales representative for more information.

Robust and reliable, the certified SIL 2 capable EQP safety system uses a distributed topology suitable for applications that require a hazardous location rated protection system. How harsh? The EQP safety system is certified to be installed in Class I, Div 2/Zone 2 hazardous locations.  

The EQP provides the following for hazardous and non-hazardous locations:

• Flame and gas detection
• Alarm signaling
• Fault notification
• Extinguishing agent release control
• Flexibility to connect to both Det-Tronics and third-party devices
• Supports flame, gas, smoke and heat detectors in a certified system configuration
• Capable of supporting redundant fault-tolerant communication loop, as well as point-to-point designs
• Provides continuous real-time safety system status and diagnostics allowing operators to know system health plus operational and maintenance requirements
• Easily integrated with PCS, DCS, SCADA and PLCs via multiple communication protocols
• Available in a pre-engineered listed system with enclosures rated for ordinary and hazardous locations
