Crowcon's new IRmax is an
ultra-compact infrared (IR)
gas detector that delivers
rapid, fail-safe detection of
hydrocarbon gases with very
low power consumption. Far
smaller and lighter than
comparable IR detectors, the
IRmax is easy to install in
even the most inaccessible
locations, says Crowcon.
Featuring dual-wavelength IR sensor technology in a rugged 316 stainless steel package, IRmax is designed to operate in harsh conditions in temperatures from -40 to +75°C. Unlike conventional IR gas detectors, IRmax does not utilise heaters to prevent condensation on windows and mirrors - instead its STAY-CLIR optical components are treated with a durable coating that prevents faults due to condensation.
