Teledyne Detcon PI-700 Universal VOC Gas Sensor

Model PI-700 is a non-intrusive “Smart” sensor that use photo-ionization detector technology to monitor VOC gases over ranges from 0-10 ppm to 0-5,000 ppm. In the PI-700 sensor design, Detcon has successfully converted the sensitive laboratory style PID technology into a rugged, environmentally insensitive, and long-life industrial gas sensor. The plug-in, field replaceable detector features over-sized gold-plated connections that help prevent corrosion. The PI-700’s rugged framework includes an electro-polished 316 stainless steel housing with fully encapsulated electronics and dual layer surge protection. This innovative design virtually eliminates sensor failure due to water ingress, corrosion, vibration, and transient spikes. A primary feature of the Model PI-700 is embedded intuitive software that simplifies operator interface by guiding the user through routine calibration, configuration, and fault diagnostic functions using a built-in alpha/numeric display. The Model PI-700 is equipped with standard analog 4-20mA, and Modbus™ RS-485 outputs. Among its unique features is a wireless option that can be used with Detcon’s SmartWireless® product line. Additional integration options include a Remote Alarm Module (RAM) and HART. Detcon’s PID sensors have a long shelf life and are supported by an industry leading warranty.
