Description
The GASMAX LX gas monitor is a two-wire loop-powered gas monitor for oxygen depletion and toxic gases, including hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, fluorine, chlorine and more.
The output is an industry-standard 4-20 mA loop signal usable by all GDS Corp controllers and other industry-standard PLCs, DCSs and other control devices.
The GASMAX LX supports oxygen, carbon monoxide, chlorine, fluorine, hydrogen, hydrogen fluoride and sulfur dioxide sensors. Sensor replacement is easy and fast.
The GASMAX LX is certified with certain non-reactive-gas sensors for use in hazardous areas and is ideal for power plants, refineries, tank farms, chemical plants, compressor stations, pipelines and other industrial installations where fixed gas detection is required for user safety and equipment protection.
