Gas detector DEX-P8R/N CO2, 5 %v/v, P4-C design, IR sensor, brass housing

Gas detectors – reliable protection and precise measurement

The DEX-P8R/N gas detector is an advanced device designed for continuous monitoring of carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the air. It utilizes proven optical sensor technology (Infra-Red), guaranteeing high accuracy and stability of measurements in the range of 0-5% by volume. The detector's construction, based on the principle of flameproof enclosure, allows for its safe use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Construction and application

The DEX-P8R/N detector is designed to operate in enclosed spaces where there is a risk of carbon dioxide accumulation. It finds application in many industries, such as:

• Food industry (control of atmosphere in warehouses and cold stores)
• Brewing and winemaking (monitoring the fermentation process)
• Ventilation and air conditioning systems (optimization of installation operation)
• Underground warehouses and car parks (ensuring safety)
• Laboratories and research facilities (control of environmental conditions)

P4-C execution with a brass housing provides high corrosion resistance and durability of the device even in harsh operating conditions. The analog current output 4-20mA allows for easy integration with various control and alarm systems, such as MDP-1.A/T, MDP-1 PLUS, MDP-4, MDP-8, MDP-16 modules and addressable modules MDD-1, MDD-1/T, MDD-1x/T. Cooperation with other control panels accepting standard 4-20mA input lines is also possible after using a power limiter such as MDPL1.

Safety and compliance with standards

The DEX-P8R/N detector meets the requirements of Directive 2014/34/UE (ATEX), which confirms its safety of use in zones threatened by explosion of gases or flammable vapors (groups IIA, IIB or IIC and temperature classes T1 to T6). The device has an ATEX certificate, which guarantees its compliance with the highest standards of quality and safety. In addition, all GAZEX detectors are calibrated in their own Calibrating Laboratory operating in accordance with the standard PN-EN ISO/IEC 17025 (PCA accreditation No. AP150). This ensures the reliability of measurements and the certainty of the device's operation.

Worth remembering: Choosing the right gas detector is a key element in ensuring safety and comfort at work. DEX-P8R/N is an investment in a reliable solution that will protect both the installation and the people working near it.
