- 🚀 INDUSTRIAL: Heavy-duty fixed gas detector. Combustible gas detection range: 0 - 100% LEL.
- 🌎 USE: Alarm output to 2 x relay alarm-triggered switches to control fans or ventilation units.
- 🎆 FEATURES: Large LED alarm and buzzer.
- 💪 ROBUST: Dust-proof, water-resistant, and flameproof.
- 🕵️ TRUSTWORTHY: 1-year limited warranty. Arrives with a signed and dated calibration certificate.
Details: Heavy-duty, fixed COMBUSTIBLES LEL EX gas detector for occupational spaces, garages, process rooms, factories, combustion control rooms, refineries, gas stations, boiler rooms, and many indoor spaces.
Detectable Gases and Vapors: Acetone, acetylene, alcohol, ammonia, benzene, butane, diesel vapors, ethanol, ethylene oxide, gasoline vapors, hexane, isopropanol, methane, naphtha, natural gas, paint thinners, propane, flammable solvents, and hundreds of other combustible gases. For those that just require a more basic combustible meter without the advanced multigas detector function, we recommend our FD-90A-EX. For those requiring a handheld combustible meter with a built-in pump, we recommend our FD-600-EX.
Included: Fixed gas detector, user manual, remote control with battery, HEX key to remove the cover, 24V power adapter to plug into a 110V outlet, and wiring. Arrives with a certified calibration certificate.
