Highlights

​The Dräger Polytron® 5310 IR is a cost effective explosion proof transmitter for the detection of flammable gases in the lower explosion limit (LEL). It uses an infrared DrägerSensor® IR that can be configured for methane, propane, or ethylene. A 3 wire 4 to 20 mA analog output with relays makes it compatible with most control systems.

Poison-resistant and fail-safe – the DrägerSensor IR

​DrägerSensor IR is a cost-effective alternative to catalytic bead sensors while offering several benefits. It is poison-resistant against chemicals that can shorten a catalytic bead pellistor’s life. Long life optics result in lower maintenance cost More Information

Same design, same operating principle

Polytron 5310 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 5310 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 5310 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.

Make the impossible possible with the remote sensor

​An available remote sensor condulet housing allows the sensor to be installed up to 30 meters (100 feet) away from the Polytron transmitter. The sensor splash guard with integrated tubing nipple permits one person to perform a full calibration of a  More Information
