Description
Designed with adaptability in mind, the OLC 100 model offers a Wheatstone bridge output, while the OLCT 100 provides a standard 4–20 mA output, giving users flexibility to match their control system requirements. These detectors support a variety of sensor technologies including MEMS, catalytic, electrochemical, semiconductor, and poison-resistant sensors, making them suitable for both routine and highly specialised applications.
All models in the OLCT 100 series are ATEX approved and are available in explosion-proof and intrinsically safe versions. This makes them suitable for use in hazardous zones where the presence of flammable or toxic gases demands the highest levels of safety. A standout feature of the OLCT 100 line is the availability of an infrared sensor variant. This version offers enhanced resistance to sensor poisoning and is ideal for environments where catalytic sensors may fail due to contaminants or extreme conditions.
The OLCT 100 series is certified to SIL 2 in accordance with EN 50402, ensuring compliance with stringent safety integrity standards. Its low Probability of Failure on Demand (PFD) underscores its dependability, rated at 1 in 418 for catalytic sensors and an even lower 1 in 2,857 for infrared sensors, making it a robust choice for mission critical applications.
The OLCT 100 is available in multiple configurations to suit specific operational needs. The OLCT 100 XP is an explosion-proof model compatible with catalytic, MEMS, electrochemical, or semiconductor sensors, and is ideal for detecting a wide array of combustible and toxic gases or oxygen. The OLCT 100 IS is intrinsically safe and equipped with an electrochemical sensor for precise monitoring of toxic gases or oxygen. The OLCT 100 XP IR version features an infrared sensor, specifically designed for the detection of gases like CO₂, CH₄, and refrigerants, particularly in environments where sensor poisoning is a concern. For high-temperature applications, the OLCT 100 XP HT is built to detect explosive gases at temperatures up to 200°C.
