Highlights
The Dräger Polytron 5700 IR is a cost effective explosion-proof transmitter for the detection of flammable gases in the lower explosive limit (LEL). It uses a high performance infrared Dräger PIR 7000 sensor that will quickly detect most common hydrocarbon gases. A 3-wire 4 to 20-mA analogue output with relays makes it compatible with most control systems.
Efficient, stable and robust – The Dräger PIR 7000
With its stainless steel 316L enclosure and drift-free optics, the Dräger PIR 7000 is built to withstand the harshest industrial environments, offshore installations for example. The unique double compensated 4 beam measuring system makes the sensor … More informationresistant to dust or dirt deposits on the optical surfaces, environmental or ageing effects and long term drift. In combination with the Polytron 5700 it offers a gas library with up to 100 gases providing a high degree of application flexibility. Each of the listed gases can be picked from a menu and automatically cross-calibrated with a standard calibration gas such as methane or propane. No need to consult the factory when applications change.
Same design, same operating principles
Polytron 5700 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 5700 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 concentration alarms and one fault alarm. Audible alarms, signal lights or … More informationsimilar devices can thus be controlled locally without an additional cable between the transmitter and central controller.
Safe, robust housing for every application
Polytron 5700 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. A protection type ‘e’ version includes a convenient docking station which … More information allows installation in hazardous atmospheres without running conduit (where approved) and this also facilitates pre-assembly.
Make the impossible possible with the 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. A special … More informationcalibration flow cell accessory enables one person to perform a full calibration of a remote mounted sensor from the transmitter.
