Wed, July 1, 2009 RAE Systems: RAE Systems Introduces New Generation of Fixed Systems
SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwire - July 1, 2009) - RAE Systems Inc. (
"This new family of hardwired toxic and flammable gas detectors, in combination with our wireless semi-permanent solutions such as MeshGuard®, gives RAE Systems unique product lines to support existing customers and new markets with cost-efficient solutions," said Jesper Jensen, RAE Systems' fixed products manager. "Our S-series fixed monitors give users the advantage of smart sensor modules that can be remotely calibrated and connected to our wireless network."
The [ RAEGuard S ] is a permanently installed single-gas detector available for a range of gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), chlorine (Cl2), combustible gases (LEL), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), methane (CH4), oxygen (O2), and sulfur dioxide (SO2). It is a flexible detector head that provides analog (4-20mA) or digital (RS-485, ModBus, RTU) signals. The RAEGuard S uses a "smart" sensor module that can be calibrated offline. It can be packaged in an explosion-proof, stainless-steel enclosure, making it ideal for hazardous environments. All models include a digital display for viewing gas concentration readings and alarms.
The [ FM-60 Controller ] is a cost efficient controller with standard 16-channel 4-20 mA inputs and 64 addressable inputs. The FMC-60 has been designed to operate in the full range of environments from commercial premises to heavy industrial applications that may require hazardous-area sensing. The FMC-60 system operates on a 4-core (addressable) and/or 2/3-core (direct) cable network and has the capacity to monitor up to 64 addressable and 16 direct sensors of various gas types.
The [ FMC-40 ], 1-to 4-channel gas alarm operates on single-channel plug-and-play cards and has been designed to operate in a full range of environments from commercial premises to heavy industrial applications that may require hazardous-area sensing. FMC-40 system applications include steel mills, wastewater treatment plants, LPG storage facilities, paint spray booths, chemical plants, chemical storage facilities, aircraft hangars and boiler rooms.
The [ FMC-10 ] is a fixed single-point alarm unit that meets the requirements for economical and reliable monitoring of gas levels in a wide range of environments, including applications that may require hazardous-area sensing. Typical monitor locations include public buildings, plant boiler rooms, swimming pools, and water treatment facilities, as well as light manufacturing and processing plants.
