mounted in the wall of the chamber. This removes the need for intrusive sampling probes which are prone to wear and are expensive to replace. The filter is back flushed with compressed air at regular intervals to ensure an uninterrupted flow of sample gas and to minimise maintenance.
The sampled gas requires no further pre-conditioning and is carried via a sample line and air pump to the measurement chamber which is equipped with an electro-chemical CO gas sensor. The system includes the facility to check zero and span drift manually against bottled audit gases.
The EnergyTech 101 offers a rapid response to build-up of CO which is a precursor to fires or mill explosions. It provides a low cost of ownership and high confidence compared with other systems that use multi-channel monitoring.
