Description

Designed for industrial ammonia (NH₃) detection to ensure worker safety

Suitable for installation in production facilities, storage tanks, refrigeration systems, laboratories, and more.

The detector is equipped with an Ionic Ammonia sensor with a lifespan of over 5 years.
The sensor is resistant to humidity and can operate in low temperatures down to -40°C.


Detection Ranges (Ammonia):

  • 0–100 ppm (TOC-102-NH3-1)
  • 0–500 ppm (TOC-102-NH3-5)
  • 0–5,000 ppm (TOC-102-NH3-50)

Dual Gas Detection Capability

This detector can measure two different gases simultaneously, thanks to its dual-sensor design:

  • One sensor dedicated to ammonia
  • Second sensor configurable for an additional gas of your choice

The detector features two independent channels, meaning each sensor operates separately—essentially providing two detectors in one unit.

Each channel includes a separate 4–20 mA analog output, allowing easy integration with external systems (e.g., fire detection systems or control systems).


Display & Status Indication

  • Real-time gas concentration displayed on a color digital screen
  • Green – Normal operation
  • Red – Alarm condition
  • Orange – Fault

Installation & Safety

  • ATEX certified, suitable for hazardous areas (Zone 1 & Zone 2)
  • Explosion-proof design
  • Remote sensor capability via cable

Example:
For gases with different densities (e.g., hydrogen – lighter than air, LPG – heavier than air), one sensor can be mounted on the detector and the second remotely for optimal detection.
