5100-28-IT IR Combustible Gas Module Model 5100-28-IT –Description –Features –IR Technology Benefits –Principle of Operation –List of Gases
12
5100-28-IT Description Non-Dispersive Infrared technology 0-100% LEL or 0-100% by Volume Methane (FM Approved) Other combustible gases including Ethane, Propane, Butane, Pentane, Hexane and others
13
Easy to read LED scrolling display FM approval for performance, operation, and environment conditions Fast speed of response <10 seconds T-60% with flame arrestor Multiple integral interfaces – Relays, 4-20 mA, Modbus RTU, and Sentry 5100-28-IT Key Selling Features
14
Infrared Technology Benefits Reduced need for calibration Lower operating costs – long life sensor Operates in high combustible gas and/or low oxygen environment Immune to catalytic bead poisons Rapid recovery after exposure to >100% concentrations of hydrocarbon gas Monitor in 0-100% LEL or 0-100% Volume ranges
15
5100-28-IT Principle of Operation Combustible gases absorb IR light energy at defined wavelengths Higher concentration results greater absorbance Detector measures energy from the IR light and compares to the energy emitted by source Difference in energy received indicates level of gas concentration Wavelength (microns) Methane Spectrum Relative Intensity
16
Gases Absorbed by IR Spectra GasResponse Hexane Hexanol Naphthalene Nonane Octane Octanol Pentane Pentanol Propane Propanol Propylene Styrene Toluene Xylene GasResponse Methane Benzene Butane Butanol Cyclobutane Cyclohexane Cycloheptane Cyclopentane Decane Ethane Ethanol Ethyl Benzene Heptane Heptanol
