Highlights

The Dräger Polytron® 5100 EC is a cost-effective explosion proof transmitter for the detection of toxic gases or oxygen. It uses a high performance plug and play electrochemical DrägerSensor® to detect a specific gas. A 2 or 3 wire 4-to-20 mA output with relays make it compatible with most control systems.

Durable, intelligent and sensitive – the DrägerSensor®

​With unique electrochemical DrägerSensors, Polytron 5100 can detect over 100 toxic gases and oxygen. These long life sensors provide continuous detection even under the harshest conditions. DrägerSensors offer the industry’s widest temperature range More Information

Same design, same operating principle

Polytron 5100 belongs to the Dräger Polytron 5000 series. All transmitters in this series have the same design and user interface. This allows for uniform operation with reduced training and maintenance requirements.

The backlit display shows status i More Information

Three relays for controlling external equipment

​Upon request, the Dräger Polytron 5100 can also be supplied with three integrated relays. This enables you to use it as an independent gas detection system with two arbitrarily adjustable concentration alarms and one fault alarm. Audio alarms, signa More Information

Safe, robust housing for every application

Polytron 5100 features a Class I, Div. 1 rated explosion proof enclosure made from aluminum or stainless steel, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions.

Remote sensor option does not require conduit

​The optional remote sensor enclosure enables the sensor to be installed away from the transmitter. This makes it easy to place the sensor close to a potential gas cloud in an inaccessible location while keeping the display at eye level. Because the  More Information

Dräger Polysoft software
Dräger Polysoft software

​The optional Dräger Polysoft Windows® software is used for configuration, firmware upgrades, diagnostics, and downloading the Polytron's built in datalogger. All from the comfort of your control room using the digital HART® signal that rides on top of the analog 4 to 20 mA signal. Out in the field, an available non-intrusive IR dongle easily connects Polytron® to Polysoft.

Duct mount kit
Duct mount kit

​The duct mount kit enables gas monitoring inside ventilation ducts while keeping the transmitter outside.

Remote sensor
Remote sensor

​With the EC Sensing Head Remote, the sensor can be installed up to 30 metres away from the Polytron in a separate compact housing. The separate sensor housing with included field cable is intrinsically safe, which makes installation considerably easier and more flexible. This means that it is not necessary to search for a suitable cable and the sensor’s position can even be adjusted within an Ex zone later on.

Splash guard
