The transmitter CS21 uses the proven chemosorption
principle for detection of toxic and combustible gases and vapours. The
extremely short response time of the transmitter enables the user to
take action quickly to prevent damage to people and plant. Long sensor
life makes the CS21 an economic alternative.
The sensor can often be
used continuously for 5 years, before replacement is required. A wide
temperature range from -40°C to + 60 °C makes the CS21 useful for a
variety of applications, particularly for the protection of
refrigeration plants.
The distance between the CS21 transmitter
and controller can be more than 500 metres. A sturdy aluminium housing
protects the sensor and electronic parts against impact, splash-water
and dirt.
The CS21 is not Ex-certified, so may not be used
directly in areas containing highly flammable gases. To detect flammable
gases and vapours within the zoned area the gas must be advanced to the
transmitter. Here, explosion protection must be guaranteed with
suitable components, e.g. flame arrestors.
