| Personal Gas Measurement | |||||||||||||||||
The
requirement to continuously and simultaneously measure the concentrations
of several gases arises frequently in industrial and community
applications.
|
Every MiniWarn has 4 measurement channels, allowing the simultaneous measurement of 1-4 gases. |
||||||||||||||||
Sensor OptionsMiniWarn has four measurement channels. These channels may be equipped with one catalytic, and at most three electrochemical sensors (DrägerSensorÒ XS EC or PacSensor II).
The catalytic Ex Sensor XS consists of two different measurement technologies in one housing and can measure % LEL as well as Vol. % unambiguously over the entire 0 to 100 Vol. % concentration range.*)
The electrochemical XS EC and PSll sensors utilize second generation »Smart« technology. They are easily installed by the user and ready to use after warming up (see the sensor data sheet). The new XS EC sensor generation requires less calibration because of improved sensor life and reduced long-time drift. Additionally, they may be equipped with filters to minimize cross sensitivity problems.
Currently more than 16 DrägerSensorÒ XS EC sensors and 12 Pac-Sensor II sensors are available for the measurement of more than 40 gases and vapours. The well-defined cross sensitivities of these sensors considerably increase the number of gas measurement possibilities. See the
