Intec Sensor Elements

X-Change Gas Sensor Cartridges

The sensor cartridge SC2 includes a high performance sensing element (electrochemical for toxic gases and pellistor type for combustible gases), and an amplifier as well as a microprocessor. All important data and measured values of the sensor element are stored fail-safe in the module and transmitted digitally via the local bus to the transmitter or controller.

The calibration management is also integrated in the microprocessor of the sensor cartridge. Calibration is done either by simply swapping the sensor cartridge or by using the user friendly, integrated calibration routine directly at the system. Sensor cartridges are factory calibrated and quality tested for immediate field installation and operation
