Teledyne Freedom 5000 Toxic Gas Detector

Making installation and everyday operation easy

The Freedom Series 5000 are full-featured 4-20mA, loop powered transmitters designed to reliably detect oxygen and any of a number of toxic gases. Its universal electronics and flexible, user-friendly features drive down gas detection costs for almost any facility.

Advanced Gas Sensors and Universal Electronics

The Freedom series advanced GasPlus sensor technology combines with the Freedom’s universal electronics to simplify use and minimize maintenance requirements of your gas detection system. Every Teledyne Gas & Flame Detection instruments “smart” sensor provides data such as gas type, range, and calibration data to the universal electronics for automatic transmitter configuration. A built-in lithium battery keeps the sensor “hot,” which eliminates the need for sensor warm-up time. On board electronics enables users to easily zero and calibrate the sensor.. An E-connector eliminates pin alignments and makes sensor replacement quick and easy.

Easy Installation, Operation and Maintenance

The unique electrical design of the Freedom transmitter and sensor virtually eliminate false alarms due to RFI/EMI sources. The transmitter can be mounted directly to rigid conduit and is available with several optional adapters including wall/surface mount and a special “L” shaped bracket to allow mounting on top of flat surfaces such as gas cabinets. Freedom series transmitters are also available with quick connect 1/4 turn sample draw and (flat or round) duct mount adapters. The sensor can be ordered integral to the transmitter or remote on three feet of cable, perfect for mounting the sensor near ground level while keeping the display at eye level. Operating Freedom transmitters is simple and intuitive. After start-up, the transmitter automatically configures to the sensor’s parameters. The “missing sensor indicator” alerts operators that the sensor is either missing or the sensor transmitter connection has been broken. Calibration is non-intrusive, performed by touching a magnet to the “Z” (zero), “S” (span), and up and down arrow markings on the enclosure. A programmable local inhibit feature and standard local display allows true one person calibration.

Advanced features and smart sensor technology

Standard Features of the Freedom 5000

Freedom from stocking additional electronics. Universal transmitter electronics for all gas models.

Freedom from intrusive operation/calibration. A simple magnetic interface and local inhibit eliminates special tools or expensive IR remote
controls.

Freedom from sensor pins or wires. E-connector makes for quick easy installation.

Freedom from field maintenance and calibration. Smart sensor technology permits sensor removal for remote calibration.

Freedom from zero drift and interfering gases. Rock Solid Sensor Technology offers superior stability and selectivity.

Freedom from sensor failure without warning. Built-in calibration factor notifies user of remaining sensor life.

Freedom from RFI/EMI induced alarms. Design concept eliminates interference through electronic design versus shielding.

Freedom from sensor warm-up times. An internal battery keeps the sensor “warm” for immediate start up.

Freedom from corrosion. All plastic construction with conformal coated internal circuitry.

• Redundancy of Safety Features – gives confidence in the life-saving equipment and allows workers to focus on the critical job at hand.
• Ease of Use – provides users a simple-to-use gas detector that requires minimal training, increases operational efficiencies and reduces training costs.
• Low Cost of Ownership – lowers costs after initial sale through its rugged design, assembly and warranty policy enabling you to direct valuable funding to training and other equipment cost.

We Make Sensors that Make a Difference Our team of research and development scientists work every day to advance sensor technologies and improve manufacturing techniques. The result – reliable, stable, and gas specific sensors including our Rock Solid series of high performance sensors. High Performance Gas Sensors Rock Solid high performance sensors use our proprietary technology that significantly enhances sensor performance. Rock Solid sensors can detect gas concentrations lower than other electrochemical gas sensor. Rock Solid sensors provide: Highest stability Lowest zero drift Greatest sensitivity Greatest specificity to the target gas Fastest speed of response and recovery time
