Sensitron SMART 3G Series for VOCs detection

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) represent a wide range of chemicals that readily evaporate into the air at room temperature. These compounds, found in many industrial processes, can have a significant impact on both human health and the environment. Detection and monitoring of VOCs in industries are therefore critical to ensure worker safety and minimize environmental pollution. The Sensitron SMART 3G C2 gas detector, part of the SMART 3G series, is certified ATEX II 2G Ex db IIC T5 Gb (II 2GD with optional adapter) and ATEX II 2G Ex db [ib] IIC T6 Gb for detectors with intrinsically safe protection, IECEx, Hardware SIL2 and Software SIL3 certified, ensuring accurate detection of VOC gases in even the harshest industrial applications. Power supply 12-24 Vdc on the board, standard mounts a 4-20mA analog output, via optional boards an RS485 output and 3 relays can be added.  A PID technology sensor can be used for the correct detection of VOCs. These are extremely sensitive instruments and can detect VOCs at very low concentrations. Its lifetime depends on various factors, including the quality of the sensor itself, operating conditions and frequency of use. However, key elements, such as the UV lamp, have life cycles ranging from 6 to 12 months, necessitating maintenance for replacement. Also, depending on the manufacturer’s instructions, periodic calibration of the detector will also be necessary to ensure accurate detection. VOCs are emitted during many production processes, including solvent use, chemical production, painting and surface treatment. Exposure to high levels of VOCs can cause a range of health problems:

• Eye, nose and throat irritation
• Central nervous system disorders
• Chronic respiratory diseases

In addition, VOCs contribute to the formation of tropospheric ozone, an air pollutant that can have harmful effects on both the environment and human health. Choose Sensitron gas detection systems ensures accurate detection and allows you to ensure the safety of people and environments.
