The revolutionary Premier Range of Infrared Gas Sensors contain all the optics, electronics and firmware for the sensor to give out a linearized, temperature-compensated output.

Features

Instantly converts existing pellistor-based instruments to infrared.

Can be programmed either as a direct pellistor replacement or with an industry standard output.

New instruments can be designed for direct digital communications with the sensor using the protocol supplied.

Provides a fast track route to introduce the latest infrared technology - without any specialist knowledge - for Hydrocarbon and, Carbon Dioxide sensors.

Benefits

This totally new approach means that, with the correct certification, Original Equipment Manufacturers:-

Are able to directly fit these sensors into compatible portable and fixed gas detectors to convert them from pellistor to infrared.

Can benefit from large savings on design costs because any instrument suitable to accept pellistors can utilise the new range of IR sensors.

Can purchase the sensors at competitive prices.

'x' denotes number of pins, i.e.

3 - for Hydrocarbon or Carbon Dioxide sensors configured to directly replace existing pellistors.
5 - for Multi Purpose sensors.

Configuration Unit

The Premier Sensor Configuration unit enables users to customise certain parameters within the Premier sensor in order to suit their particular requirements. The unit is supplied complete with a PC software configuration package. Versions of the unit are available for either positive or negative supply sensors. Ordering details are as follows:

Positive version - Type P/CONFIG/POS
Negative version - Type P/CONFIG/NEG
