With an infrared source and specific filtering on the pyroelectric detectors mounted inside the optical/gas cavity, individual gases or types of gas can be identified and their concentrations determined. These sensors are suitable for reliable monitoring of gas levels in general safety applications where the sensor size is restricted and require a flameproof enclosure for hazardous environments. APPLICATIONS     Oil & Gas Petrochemical Biogas Wastewater     Utilities Steelworks Confined Space Entry Indoor Air Quality FEATURES   For detection of the following gases: o Carbon Dioxide (IR11 Series), o Hydrocarbons (IR12 series, IR13 series) o Acetylene (IR14 series) Gas concentration ranges: o 0 - 5% Carbon Dioxide (also suitable for 0 to 0.5%v/v) o 0 - 100% Carbon Dioxide (also suitable for 0 to 10%) o 0 - 100%v/v Hydrocarbons (also suitable for 0 to 100%LEL) o             To operate, the sensors must be interfaced to a suitable circuit for power supply, output amplification and signal processing. Sensor outputs require linearisation and compensation for ambient temperature variation using algorithms in the system firmware. This is necessary for sensors to meet their full performance specification. An embedded temperature sensor facilitates this compensation on certain types. Further compensation for pressure changes can also be made in an algorithm, provided there is a suitable input from a pressure sensor. A set of Application Notes is available from the SGX Sensortech Ltd website, to explain more about NDIR gas sensing and provide advice for the end-user on interfacing the sensors and processing signals. 0 - 100%v/v Acetylene (also suitable for 0 to 100%LEL)   OPERATION 16.6mm or 19.0mm sensor heights available Embedded temperature sensor in some versions for improved temperature compensation Shock-resistant IR Source version available on certain types Diffused gas sampling via mesh Low power Reference channel for self-compensation Special gold plated optical gas cavity for stable signal levels Operational in varying temperature, pressure and humidity Fast response Rugged stainless steel construction No moving parts Immunity from ‘poisoning’ Reliable fail-safe operation Certified: ATEX, IECEx, CSA and UL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION Mechanical Dimensions Body material Approximate Weight See Outlines Stainless Steel 30g Environmental Ambient temperature range for operation: storage: Operational pressure range Humidity range for operation and storage -20°C to +55°C -20°C to +55°C 30kPa to 130kPa 0 to 95% RH (Non-condensing) Electrical DC supply to detectors Typical power IR Source Supply 3V to 5V 180mW @ 5V +5V, 60mA (Recommended) (Square Wave at 4Hz, 50% duty cycle) ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Whilst SGX has taken care to ensure the accuracy of the information contained herein it accepts no responsibility for the con sequences of any use thereof and also reserves the right to change the specification of goods without notice.

The Lowest Concentration Range is the lowest range the sensor is suitable. The use of the sensor beyond these ranges will affect the sensor’s performance. ** All sensors use temperature compensated pyroelectric detectors except for IR1nBD variants which are uncompensated. This refers to a change in the DC voltage output only. Further temperature compensation is required for all sensor variants. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS 1. Do not allow sensors to fall on the floor. This could cause IR Source filament breakage, damage to the pins and the gas entrance aperture. 2. Do not apply mechanical force against the gas entrance aperture. 3. Do not immerse sensors in water or other fluids. 4. Protect the gas entrance aperture against dust ingress and sprayed materials. 5. Anti-static handling precautions must be taken. © SGX Sensortech 2016 Document subject to disclaimer on page 1 DS-0247, Issue 2, 28-Sep-2016, Page 2 SGX Europe Sp. Z o.o.

Running the IR Source at 3V will decrease performance due to lower output signals. - Ambient temperature (20°C) and pressure (101 kPa). - All gases diluted in dry nitrogen. - Performance for the Hydrocarbons refers to Methane only. Most other hydrocarbons will have an improved performance. - Performance data is the same for the supported IR Source variants (“_1” variants). - Refer to Application Notes for more information.

Using average Alpha and Beta coefficients based upon test data from the instrument in which the sensor is being tested. Refer to Application Notes for information on calculating Alpha and Beta coefficients. Accuracy can be improved by measuring each sensor over temperature to define specific Alpha or Alpha & Beta coefficients. After sensor stabilisation and over a period of 8 hours. Difference in response when changed from 0 %RH to 90 %RH. Sensors can be used over a greater ambient pressure using pressure compensation of the concentration. An external pressure sensor will be requred for this. FRACTIONAL ABSORBANCE CURVES These show the typical sensitivity versus concentration before linearisation for the range of gases.
