Highlights
The Dräger Polytron 8200 CAT is an explosion-proof high-end transmitter designed for detecting flammable gases and vapours. It uses the catalytic DrägerSensor Ex… DQ. In addition to the 3-wire operation with a 4 to 20 mA analogue output, it also offers HART, fieldbus options and Modbus, allowing you to integrate the transmitter with most control systems in your gas detection system.
Fast and stable: The DrägerSensor Ex … DQ
The built-in type-DQ gas sensor is based on the proven catalytic bead measuring principle. It has excellent long-term stability with outstanding poison resistance. And this is the reason for its durability. Due to the novel gas inlet opening, the sen … More information
sor responds to gas in only a few seconds. This allows you to react immediately with countermeasures and prevent the development of a flammable atmosphere.Easy device management via digital communication
The Dräger Polytron 8200 is equipped with digital interfaces allowing for quick and easy remote interrogation of the transmitter’s state. Integration with existing asset management systems such as PACTware™ is possible via DTM. In addition to the com … More information
mon HART® communication system, the fieldbus interfaces PROFIBUS® PA, FOUNDATION fieldbus™ H1 and Modbus RTU are also available.Same design, same operating principle
The Dräger Polytron 8200 belongs to the Polytron 8000 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 large graphic backlit dis … More information
play shows status information clearly and in an easy to use format. The measured gas concentration and measuring unit are displayed during normal operation. Coloured LEDs (green, yellow and red) provide additional alarm and status information. You can evaluate the sensor signal by using the 4 to 20 mA output. The Polytron 8200 is operated by means of a magnetic wand over contact surfaces.Three relays for controlling external equipment
Upon request, the Dräger Polytron 8200 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. Audible alarms, sign … More information
al lights 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 8200 is explosion-proof and conforms to explosion protection type "d". For the increased safety type 'e' protection, an additional terminal box is available. This also makes pre-assembly easier. Depending on the environmental conditions, … More information
you can choose the Dräger Polytron 8200 with either an aluminium or stainless steel housing.Make the impossible possible with the remote sensor
The remote sensing head 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.
Data logger
The Polytron 8200 has a data logger, which records measuring and event data from prior years.
