General Description
The model B116LP plug-in detector base is used with
System Sensor model 1151, 1151A, and 1151E ionization
detector heads and model 2151, 2151A, and 2151E photo-
electronic detector heads. The capability of plugging these
detectors into a variety of special bases makes them more
versatile than equivalent direct-wired models. Refer to the
System Sensor catalog for other available plug-in detector
bases.
