Sensidyne® has announced the launch of the SensAlert® IR, a cutting-edge infrared point gas detector designed for high-priority applications. Built to excel in harsh environments, the  SensAlert IR features advanced dual-wavelength, Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology that ensures precise and reliable gas detection – even in the most challenging conditions.   

The SensAlert IR sensor is constructed from durable, explosion-proof adonized aluminum or 316 stainless-steel, providing unmatched resilience in demanding industrial settings such as oil  refining, gas processing, and chemical plants. Designed for anaerobic atmospheres and consistent hydrocarbon presence, it is immune to sensor poisoning and etching, ensuring reliability over   extended periods. This innovative detector offers significant operational advantages, including maintenance-free operation and no need for routine span calibrations.  

The SensAlert IR supports both single and dual sensor configurations, local and remote installation, with sensor placement up to 250 feet from the transmitter, offering flexibility for  various industrial setups. It also integrates seamlessly with both new and existing systems through a 3-wire, 4-20 mA linear output, making it a versatile solution for modern industrial environments  up to Class 1, Div-1 applications.
