May 2014
Sensors & Transducers
SGX Sensortech has announced the launch of eight new sensors to complement its range of industrial and commercial gas sensing products. Included in the range are;
* 4 Series hydrogen sulphide sensor.
* 4 Series carbon monoxide sensor.
* 4 Series dual-tox hydrogen sulphide.
* 4 Series lead based 2 year oxygen sensor.
* 7 Series carbon monoxide sensor.
* 7 Series hydrogen sulphide sensor.
* 7 Series ammonia sensor.
* 7 Series lead based 2 year oxygen sensor.
The new products allow instrument manufacturers a greater choice when selecting sensors for carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide and oxygen and are available in two industry standard packages; 20 and 32 mm diameter. In addition, SGX is proud to include an innovative combined carbon monoxide and hydrogen sulphide sensor in the same package to provide industry compliant performance in a miniature housing designed to save space in portable instrument designs.
The sensors have been fully characterised to ensure industry compliant performance and include the latest advances in sensor design and manufacturing techniques to ensure consistent reliability and excellent quality.
