Description

The GS01 is a wireless infrared gas transmitter for continuous monitoring of flammable hydrocarbon gases and vapours in the oil and gas industry. The intrinsically safe and SIL-rated transmitter features completely wireless signal transmission and power supply. This makes the GS01 a flexible and cost efficient solution for plant expansions, upgrades, and new greenfield projects.

On offshore platforms or FPSOs, at tank farms and refineries – safety-related measuring points are everywhere in the oil and gas industry. Some of these measuring points are extremely difficult if not impossible to monitor using wired gas detection devices.

In contrast, the GS01 wireless transmitter requires no cable installation, either for signal transmission or for its power supply. As such, installation is easy and uncomplicated and the transmitter sends its signal to the access point up to 500 metres away. No cable conduits are required for the power supply or for signal transmission. Plus, the GS01-EA product variant with separate antenna can be installed inside machines or buildings where signal transmission is impossible due to shielding.

For temporary applications, such as maintenance work on petrochemical plants or exploratory drilling, the GS01 offers you maximum flexibility. It can be seamlessly integrated into your existing safety features. Even technically complex installations, such as on the rotating tower of an FPSO, can now be carried out without hassle.

FAQs
What is the Dräger GasSecure GS01?

The GS01 is a wireless infrared gas transmitter designed for continuous monitoring of flammable hydrocarbon gases and vapours. It utilises patented MEMS (Micro-Electromechanical Systems) optical filters for infrared absorption spectroscopy, offering fast and accurate detection without the need for recalibration.

How long does the GS01 operate on a single battery pack?

The GS01 operates on a low-power design, consuming less than 5 milliwatts. Depending on environmental conditions, it can run for up to 24 months on a single battery pack. The battery pack is intrinsically safe and can be replaced in hazardous areas.

What wireless communication standard does the GS01 use?

The GS01 employs the ISA100.11a wireless standard for communication. This standard supports embedding of protocols like PROFIsafe, enabling integration into Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) with a fully SIL2-capable signal chain

Does the GS01 require calibration?

GasSecure provides several software tools:

  • GS01 Configurator: For provisioning detectors with firmware version 3.0 and later.

  • GS Provisioning Tool: For detectors with older firmware versions.

  • GS Viewer: For visualising process values and diagnostic data, compatible with Yokogawa gateways. .
