N2-B6 Series - 8/23/23
Overview
The B6 Series Toxic/Combustible Gas Detectors use various sensing technologies to
detect a wide assortment of gases. These units are housed in a NEMA 4X rated plastic
enclosure that will meet a wide variety of applications. The combo unit consists of a main
unit (Carbon Monoxide only) with an LCD, LED status indication, 3 user configurable
relays and a remote sensing unit (various gas types available) for installation at high or
low elevations based on the density of the gas being detected. The main and remote unit
gas concentrations levels are both displayed on the main unit's LCD. This series also
features a sensor module that can be easily replaced by removing a couple of screws
and unplugging the existing module before inserting the new factory calibrated sensing
module. All units should be verified for proper functionality and calibration once the
replacement sensor module has been reinstalled. A user selectable password can be
used to protect the system integrity.
Applications: Mechanical Rooms, Warehouses, Refrigeration Plants, Industrial Plants,
Process Monitoring, Leak Detection, Parking Garages, Auto/Truck Maintenance
Facilities, Oil and Gas Industry
It is your responsibility to ensure that the B6 Series meets all of your applicable Federal, State, Provincial
and Local Health and Safety laws and regulations before using these products.
Caution
The B6 Series Gas Transmitters are covered by a Two (2) Year Limited Warranty against defects in material and
workmanship from the date of shipment with the exception of the Sensor Modules (Electrochemical/Toxic: Six Months and
Catalytic/ Combustible: One Year)
