IR602/3

IR602/3 is an IR600 series Pellistor gas sensor for hazardous areas. It is designed to detect and monitor the presence of hydrocarbons using the same non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) principle as used in the SGX Sensortech range of miniature infrared gas sensors. The dual detector channels are used with a reference for background compensation. A temperature sensor is mounted for temperature compensation. The IR600 sensor is designed to be integrated with fixed gas detection systems. Its construction is a stainless steel flameproof enclosure with an integral stainless steel sinter for the safe entry of the gases being tested.

• Diffused gas sampling via sinter, low power, reference channel for self-compensation
• Special gold-plated optical/gas cavity for stable signal levels
• Operational in varying temperature, pressure and humidity
• Fast response, rugged stainless steel construction, no moving parts
• Resistance to corrosion, immunity from ‘poisoning’, reliable fail-safe operation
• Low maintenance, sealed preamplifier/buffer electronics
• ATEX certified, UKCA certified, CSA certified (Canada and US)
• Operational pressure range from 700kPa to 1300kPa
• Ambient temperature range from -20°C to +60°C (ATEX, UKCA), -20°C to +65°C (CSA)
• 180mW / 5V typical power
