The Polytron® 8100 EC is Dräger’s top of the line explosion-proof transmitter for the detection of toxic gases or oxygen.
It uses a high performance plug and play electrochemical DrägerSensor to detect a specific gas. Besides having a 3-wire 4 to 20 mA analog output with relays, it also offers HART®, Modbus and Fieldbus protocol, making it compatible with most control systems.
Benefit
Upon request, the Dräger Polytron 8100 can also be supplied with three integrated relays. This enables you to use it as an independent gas detection system with two arbitrarily adjustable concentration alarms and one fault alarm. Audible alarms, signal lights or similar devices can thus be controlled locally without an additional cable between the transmitter and central controller.
The remote sensor enclosure allows you to install the sensor separately from the transmitter. This ‘external’ installation makes it easier to use if the sensor has to be installed in a difficult to access or unfavourable position.
With different software dongles, additional functions can be added to the Polytron 8100. The data logger dongle comes as standard and continuously records gas readings and events. A sensor test dongle is available for additional sensor self-test functionality. A third dongle is available for advanced sensor diagnosis. These dongles indicate the sensor’s vitality, giving you an estimate of the sensor’s remaining service life.
