The S4000CH is a hydrocarbon gas detector with a remotely-installed sensor suitable for use in SIL 3 applications and approved by FM, CSA, ATEX, GOST and has CE Marking. The Automatic Remote Gas Calibrator (ARGC) makes calibrating this device very easy. The ARGC addresses the need for more convenient and expedient maintenance routines by allowing calibration gas to be applied to the catalytic bead sensor from easily accessible locations. The instrument can calibrate gases at wind velocities as high as 80km/h and maximum temperatures of 75°C. After connecting the ARGC to any S4000CH Detector, the calibrator can be operated manually or electronically via HART or Modbus, or the magnet menu. The ARGC is suitable for a wide range of applications, including drilling rigs, compressor stations, refineries, aircraft hangars and warehouses. It is easy to install and use, requiring no electrical wiring or connectors. For fully automatic operation from a control room, the two bidirectional protocols (HART and Modbus) are utilized.
