PIRDuct IR Gas Monitor
.
- The PIRDuct "DuctWatch" combustible IR gas
detector is specially designed to deliver
reliable gas detection in enclosed airhandling
ductwork applications. Safety engineers have
long been aware that duct air monitoring provides
the ability to maximize protection of confined
spaces in challenging industrial applications. - The PIRDuct optical probe is inserted through the
ductwall and spans across the duct
interior, allowing moving air to pass into the
detection chamber for analysis of hydrocarbon
vapor concentration. It is ideally suited for
retrofit replacement of point detectors, and is
in essence an IR beam detector delivered in a
prealigned, ready to install package. The
key advantages delivered by PIRDuct include the
ability to reliably and accurately measure gas
concentration across air ductwork without the
costly maintenance headache of sampling systems
and expensive installation costs. - The PIRDuct is 6 times more sensitive to
combustible gas than a conventional IR point
detectors, and optimizes detection in
applications where air stratification can occur. - Typical applications include
- Gas turbine enclosures
- Gas compressor enclosures
- HVAC air intakes
- Air intakes to engine compartments
- Reliable, low maintenance IR technology is the
heart of the DuctWatch combustible gas detector,
and it has evolved from thousands of successfully
installed and operating Pointwatch PIR9400 IR gas
detectors.
