Highlights

Upgrade to infrared technology "in the twinkling of an eye" - the DrägerSensor IR can replace catalytic ex-sensors (catalytic bead sensors, pellistors) without additional installation work.

Problem-free integration

​The DrägerSensor IR emulates a Wheatstone half-bridge. A bridge signal is sent in mV, and the sensor responds to the control system in the same way as a pellistor. For this reason, the DrägerSensor IR can be operated with all Dräger control syste More Information

Smart and flexible

The DrägerSensor IR offers a gas library with three gas categories: Methane, propane and ethylene. Therefore, nearly all hydrocarbons are detectable sufficiently well and sensitive. And finally, temperature-compensatory linearizing algorithms allow f More Information

Immune to pellistor poisons

Technological advantages in infrared technology (e.g. fail-safe operation or immunity against pellistor poisons) have been recognized and valued by the market for a long time.

The DrägerSensor IR now also offers these plus points for systems that hav More Information
