Apex takes all the best elements of gas detection design and combines them into one unit. Apex provides the highest performance, installation flexibility, a wide range of accessories and a choice of communication outputs. All this is provided in a package
that is easy to install, operate and maintain.
Typical applications include:
Petrochemical - Exploration drilling rigs, production platforms,
FPSO’s, oil and gas terminals, chemical plants,
oil and gas tankers
Heavy Industrial - Steel manufacture, ship building
Manufacturing - Automotive, glass and ceramics, aerospace,
printing and coating, cosmetics
Pharmaceutical - Research labs, solvent storage areas, process areas, demineralisation plants
Transmitter - The robust hazardous area approved Apex transmitter housing and mounting bracket is made from 316 Stainless Steel. It has a large backlit LCD display, simple 4 button operation,
3 fully configurable relay outputs and selectable sink, source or isolated 4-20mA signal. The transmitter is common to all types of sensor.
Sensor - The Apex Sensor can be mounted directly on the transmitter or remotely up to 100m away. There are two versions of sensor; one for both catalytic and electrochemical type sensor cartridges and one for the thick film (semi conductor) type cartridges.
Smart cartridge - The sensors can be fitted with a choice of over
40 toxic gas ranges and wide range of detectable flammable gases. Each cartridge is pre calibrated and simply plugs into the sensor. The Intrinsically Safe design allows cartridges to be changed with the unit under power. The transmitter recognizes a newly fitted sensor cartridge and automatically reads all the configuration information from it.
