The Dräger Polytron 5100 EC is a cost-effective explosion-proof transmitter for the detection of toxic gases or oxygen in standard applications. 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 makes it compatible with most control systems.
Durable, intelligent and sensitive – the DrägerSensor
With the unique electrochemical Dräger sensors, the Polytron 5100 covers a total of 15 typical gases in various measuring ranges. These long-life sensors provide continuous detection even under the harshest conditions. DrägerSensors offer the industr … More informationy’s widest temperature range between -40 °C to +65 °C (-40 °F to +150 °F). The built-in memory contains all the necessary calibration and configuration information. The sensors are calibrated ready for immediate operation. The sensor's intrinsically safe connection dispenses with the need for a flame arrestor giving you a faster response time and higher sensitivity.
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 … More informationinformation clearly with quick access to functions using a non-intrusive magnetic wand. The gas concentration and measurement unit are displayed during normal operation. Coloured LEDs (green, yellow and red) provide additional alarm and status information.
Three relays for controlling external equipment
The Dräger Polytron 5100 can also be supplied with three integrated relays upon request. This enables you to use it as an independent gas detection system with two adjustable gas concentration alarms and one fault alarm. Audible alarms, signal lights … More information or similar devices can thus be controlled locally without an additional cable between the transmitter and central controller.
Safe, robust housing for every application
The Polytron 5100 features a Class I, Div. 1 rated explosion-proof enclosure made of aluminum or stainless steel, making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions. A protection type “e” version includes a convenient docking station ena … More informationbling installation in hazardous atmospheres without running conduit (where approved) and this also facilitates pre-assembly.
Make the impossible possible with remote sensor
The remote sensor connection housing allows you to install the sensor separately from the transmitter. This allows you to simply place the sensor closer to the gas cloud in hard-to-reach locations. The display remains visible at eye level. Since the … More informationsensor is connected via an intrinsically safe connection, no conduit cabling is required. The connection also allows 'hot replacement' of the sensor in the hazardous area.
Specifications
-40°C - 65°C
Temperature (operation)
Epoxy coated copper-free aluminum or stainless steel SS316 L
The duct mount kit enables gas monitoring inside ventilation ducts while keeping the transmitter outside.
Remote Sensor EC
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
The Splash guard protects the sensor against splash water and dirt.
