Gastec Fixed Gas Detector Alarm F Series
The Gastec F Series offers continuous 24-hour, 365-day monitoring for gases like carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, and oxygen. It provides optimal system configurations for fixed installations, suitable for monitoring gas leaks, emissions, ventilation, and oxygen deficiency in various environments. The system can be tailored to specific site conditions, including concentration, temperature, humidity, and coexisting gases.
Key Features
- Standard 2-level alarm function (F1 type)
- Highly reliable and gas-selective sensors
- Long-life, stable, and reproducible sensors
- Reduced noise compared to previous models
- Compact design
- Long installation distance for detector units
- Easy calibration
- Record output (4-20mA) available
System Configuration
The F Series allows for a flexible system configuration, combining detector units, options, and display/alarm units. This includes diffusion and aspirating type detectors, single-case units, and multi-point wall-mounted cases for 3, 6, or 10 points. The system can be integrated with external alarms and recording devices.
Detector Types
- Diffusion Type Detectors: Available for Carbon Monoxide (using electrochemical sensor), Hydrogen Sulfide (using electrochemical sensor), and Oxygen (using galvanic cell sensor).
- Aspirating Type Detectors: Also available for various gases.
Models and Specifications
The F Series includes models like CMFA-300A (wall-mounted, single-point detection for one gas type) and F-1-CM-3/F-1-CM-6 (wall-mounted, for 2-10 point detection, supporting multiple gas types). The system specifications detail measurement principles, ranges, accuracy, response times, and environmental operating conditions.
Maintenance and Calibration
Regular maintenance and calibration are crucial for the long-term performance of gas detectors. Gastec provides calibration gases and tools to ensure accurate readings and sensor longevity. Calibration involves exposing the detector to a known concentration of calibration gas to adjust its readings.
