Teledyne Simtronics GD10P Infrared Point Gas Detector

The Simtronics GD10P infrared gas detector, formerly known as the Simrad GD10p, is the market reference for combustible gas detection. Suitable for a wide range of industries from boiler rooms to offshore petrochemical sites.

The GD10P differs from other models because it utilises silicon-based solid-state infrared sources and a complete optomechanical design. This stability allows for rapid response times and exceptional longevity, minimising maintenance and service costs.

The GD10P also features heated optics to prevent condensation, a HART interface, fail-safe operation and global approvals. It offers the longest combined warranty available: five years for the detector and fifteen years for the solid-state infrared optics.

For retrofit applications, a bridge interface is available, allowing the detector to be connected directly to catalytic systems, using the existing cabling and control modules.

An industry standard HART interface is used for configuration of the optical fast response time and special fault levels, as well as access to extended maintenance data.

Features

• Solid-state IR sources for superior long-term performance compared to filament lamps.
• High IR source flash rate provides improved stability and speed of response.
• True dual path, double compensation optical design means no recalibration. All changes in the optical path are accounted for and monitored.
• A selectable response rate makes this the fastest IR point detector on the market, ideal for speed-critical applications.
• Dual-layer weather protector requires no mesh, gauze, hydrophobic filters or sinters. No delay, no failure on demand.
• An early, dirty optics warning allows for improved preventative maintenance.
• Integral termination compartment reduces installation time. This unit is ready to use, out of the box.
• Low power consumption of 140 mA (typical) to reduce the load on the UPS.
• An independently heated mirror and lens provide high-performance detection in rough environmental conditions.
• Manufacturer Teledyne Oldham, previously Simrad Optronics.
• HS code 9027101000. Country of origin: France.
