Crowcon XGard Bright Fixed Gas Detector

SKU: xgardbright

The new MPS™ sensor in the XGard Bright is tailor-made for Hydrogen detection yet detects and accurately identifies 15 different flammable gases in one device. Elimate disruption because there's no more sensor poisoning, no false alarms and no does not require calibration and no maintenance over its 5-year+ lifecycle meaning a lower total cost of ownership

Product Description

Details

The XGard Bright from Crowcon is a versatile fixed gas detector offering flammable and toxic gas detection and oxygen monitoring. It also benefits from a lower cost of installation by drastically reducing cabling requirements.

The gas sensors include PID, IR and electrochemical formats within the addressable gas detector.

Meet the next generation of flammable gas detection

The Xgard Bright is now available with MPS (Molecular Property Spectrometer™) technology

Sensor poisoning is solved - Designed for today’s multi-gas environments, resists contamination and prevents sensor poisoning.
Calibration is over - Doesn't require calibration and no maintenance over its 5-year+ lifecycle meaning a lower total cost of ownership.
Eliminate interruptions - Scheduled maintenance is no longer needed. The sensor self-monitors and automatically reports any problems with its operation, giving greater peace of mind
TrueLEL™ - Accurately detects and identifies 15 different flammable gases, including Hydrogen, Methane and CO₂. Unlike Pellistor and Infrared sensors, it has on-board environmental compensation, so does not need a correctional factor. Inaccurate readings, non-alarms and false alarms are a thing of the past.
Hydrogen ready - The MPS™ sensor is tailor-made for Hydrogen detection. Infrared detectors cannot identify Hydrogen, so until now, the only option has been Pellistor detection, with limitations around accuracy and more susceptible to poisoning.
Save space without compromising on safety - With the MPS™ sensor, only one device is needed for Hydrogen detection
Lower cost of ownership - no maintenance and calibration

Low Install & Operating Costs

Low power requirement (~3W max) – Reducing site-wide power consumption
Addressable – Drastically reduces the amount of cabling needed for multi-point installations

Reduce Maintenance Times

Local display – Delivers gas level indication, status and supports maintenance routines
Non-intrusive calibration – Removes the need to open the cover for calibration
Plug-in type terminal blocks: Making wiring quick and easy reducing installation costs
Configuration via magnetic key – Reducing the amount of time operators spend in a hazardous area

Ultimate Protection

The XGard Bright certifications include gas and dust approvals for ATEX and IECEX
