Transmitter-sensors for combustible, toxic and oxygen gases

March 2006 Sensors & Transducers

The OLCT 80 transmitter sensor has been developed in compliance with the strictest specifications at Oldham Group France, and is one of the best in the gas detection market. The OLCT 80 is a major achievement in terms of technical performance and cost optimisation. It has been designed to meet the material, practical and financial needs of the largest industrial companies. Features include:

* The lowest electrical consumption on the market.

* Consequent reduction in wiring cost.

* Detection of combustible gases, toxic gases as well as oxygen through the use of pre-calibrated sensor blocks.

* Two integrated alarms with relay as well as one trouble alarm with relay.

* Standalone central unit, for relay control.

* Flexibility of connection modes.

* Operation traceability.

* Remote dialogue with the sensor using IR remote control.

* Measurement power supply redundancy.

* Extremely low energy requirements.

* Assisted calibration.

Accessories include an infrared remote control, tool kit, gas intake feed device, cover key, gas circulation head, anti-splash device, remote gas injection head and gas collector. Applications would include the mining industry, heavy and light industry and the steel industry.
